What’s The Only Thing Worse Than an Incompetent Subordinate?
The answer to this riddle surprised, amused and enlightened me. So, I had to share it along with some analysis.

"A surprisingly large number of people claim to have worked for a manager who was clearly incompetent. Some people even believe, that in certain sectors, the incompetent outnumber the competent.

Nuturing Employee Engagement in Flat Organizations
Established organizations continue to flatten the organizational pyramid through eliminating managerial layers and upping the subordinate/superior ratio from the classic 6:1 to 12:1 and higher. Newer companies stay flat from the get-go. One consequence is that a traditional workplace acknowledgement - the promotion - is becoming rarer as opportunities for internal upward mobility are reduced.
Are You a Rookie or a Pro?

Empower Your Sales People By Providing Them With Positive Behavioral Feedback
The sales manager is the sales rep's direct line of communication between himself and his performance. If this line is cut, if the sales manager is somewhat incompetent or won't do his job properly, then the company has a problem. One of the most important factors that could influence a sales rep's growth in his career is the sales manager's ability to do his job well.
Delegate to Significantly Increase Your Success
Delegation refers to the assignment of responsibility to another person in order for that one to carry out a chosen project. It allows staff members to develop their skills to full potential and entrusts authority to someone else. You are giving that person the right to act independently, under the power of your name and your firm. You are held responsible in delegation because you are recommending this subordinate as a capable leader. The staff member has the right to react to situations, making his or her own decisions, and not being required to report back to you for verification or advice.

How to Be a Sales Coach
My belief is that all sales representatives should be coached on an ongoing basis. It is a form of mentoring that enables ongoing dialogue between the manager and the subordinate so that feedback on performance doesn't occur only when there is a problem. Nor should it occur and only one time of the year-the performance review. Moreover it allows for excellent sales work and customer service to be recognized, supported, exploited and then finally conveyed to others.
