Link to September 6 BNET "Corner Office" post by Steve Tobak, "7 signs you may be a bad manager".
The list (with library specifics added).
1. Your group (department staff/library staff) is underperforming.
2. Your manager (library director/library board) is turning up the heat.
3. Allies (library colleagues/other library directors in your system or consortium) are distancing themselves from you.
4. You're behaving like more of a jerk than usual. (Tobak shows no mercy.)
5. Your decision-making is compromised.
6. Your personal relationships suck. (In other words, it's bad all over.)
7. Your employees are miserable. (And, consequently, are providing crummy public service.)
