Rey ElboWHAT indicates an opportunity for creativity? My short and simple answer is, “There’s nothing better than allowing the workers to do their job without supervision.” Among command-and-control bosses, this is plain stupidity. And they’ll tell you not to allow it: “Don’t go to your workers telling them that.”

As expected, many Theory X managers don’t understand my view on this. Why not? It is as simple as understanding where these managers are coming from. Generally, they believe that workers prefer to be directed and dislike work most of the time. No, I don’t mean to single out those who work in the government.
