“So much of what we call management consists in making it difficult for people to work.” – Peter Drucker

Hire great people, give them direction and inspiration, and then get out of their way.  Highly productive, creative people do not work well when they are micromanaged.  If they are not with the program, invite them off the bus early.  If you, or they made a mistake in coming onboard, invite them off the bus early.  The right people don’t need to be “managed”.
