Best Quotes
Over the past year I have been playing some of the best stuff of my career and the fact that I have found two managers I enjoy working with has played a big part in this, ... They are very different in terms of personality and how they want the game played but both have shown faith in me and I think it is paying off.

Drop Quotes
Risk managers who saw their renewal prices drop said they felt lucky, because those who experienced the hurricane effect are now explaining to their management why renewal premiums just went through the roof. The real question is whether Katrina and Rita will have a lasting effect and strengthen the market for a time -- potentially in all lines of business, not just property -- or whether this is a short-term blip in what has proved to be a pretty resolute soft market.
-
Approach Quotes
Research suggests that the 20% productivity gap between typical American and British firms is because US managers tend to be more robust when it comes down to HR issues. They recruit and select more efficiently and take a more vigorous approach to staff performance. So if you haven't been trained in the best management practice, you may not employ or use your human resources as effectively as you could do.

Almost Quotes
Recruitment trends are tied to confidence in the economy and 56 percent of hiring managers expect the economy to improve in 2004. While more than half of hiring managers will be focused on employee turnover in the coming year, what is encouraging is that almost one-third will recruit to expand their business, introduce new products and services or enhance customer relations. After two years of a relatively flat job recovery, this is a positive indicator that job creation is on the rebound.

Afford Quotes
Regarding the lack of atmosphere a Premiership grounds, it is staggering that this comes as a surprise to anyone. What do you expect when a ticket costs an average seven minimum wage working hours, or one day's work? When only lawyers and bank managers can reasonably afford to attend matches do not expect the camaraderie of the working man's club in the stands
-
Cannot Quotes
Recent accounting-related legislation is having a significant impact at a time when the pool of qualified prospects is declining due to the 150-hour rule instituted by most states. As a result, many hiring managers have more work than they can handle with current staffing levels and cannot find enough capable new hires.

Allowed Quotes
Our Overfishing Scorecard shows that when managers prevent overcapitalization of fishing fleets and set and enforce responsible limits based on science, they can make progress in ending overfishing and rebuilding stocks. However, when fishing is allowed to exceed scientific recommendations, fisheries managers are putting our future at risk.

Concerns Quotes
Survey respondents are facing flat job growth figures and are mirroring the concerns expressed in other surveys about the national economy, which has slowed considerably from solid growth in the first three quarters of 2005. Purchasing managers are displaying mixed signals looking forward into 2006.
-
Cases Quotes
Some of the managers missed some of the initial run up in tech stocks, ... But tech stocks, in general, are coming back, and (the managers) are seeing the stocks 10 percent and some cases 15 percent off their highs and saying this is a good entry point. Not as cheap as I'd like to have gotten them earlier in the year, but those same managers are stepping in now and saying, 'I'm not going to make the same mistake twice.'

Bring Quotes
I think he?s done exactly what team has expected him to do. He?s kept a very clean clubhouse, there are no disgruntled ballplayers or anything. He?s always had an open-door policy, our entire coaching staff does, I think Theo does, also. He definitely deserves what any other manager gets when they bring home a World Series. Granted, players go out there and play, but managers have to deal with us all.
-
Children Quotes
It depends how managers wish to learn, but one idea is to give them some relatively stress-free ways of exploring how they might go about managing what, inevitably, many people see as conflict. You should do this on a frequent basis, as you might do with your children - it makes for a better relationship.

Economy And Economics Quotes

-
Aware Quotes
Managers are already voracious consumers of theory. Every time they make a decision or take action, it's based on some theory that leads them to believe that action will lead to the right result. The problem is, most managers aren't aware of the theories they're using, and they often use the wrong theories for the situation.
-

Ahead Quotes
Most large organizations have a big investment in Symantec tools and wouldn't normally consider switching. This year, however, Symantec's products have repeatedly shown up on the list of the software with critical new security vulnerabilities. Many corporate IT managers are angry and frustrated that their security vendor is as careless as the operating system vendors in writing bad code. And Microsoft has succeeded in persuading many of them that they are far ahead of other software vendors in improving the situation for new products.
-
Best Quotes
Most hiring managers interview a lot of people. So many that they generally have to go back to their notes to remember candidates - the exception being candidates with a strong hook. Sometimes these hooks are how people dress or their personality, but the best hook is a strong story that's work-related.

Christmas Quotes
We've gotten such a good system down, my managers can get a lot of stuff done. It was unbelievable around here (Sunday) night. If you open the door in that room it was Santa's elves working on Christmas Day. They were going at it. There were sparks coming out of that room. They all take some ownership.

Acceptable Quotes
Today's IT managers face a completely new set of cooling and thermal problems in the data center. In a traditional data center environment higher temperatures are addressed by supplying an over-abundance of cooling to the room, which is extremely wasteful and ultimately cost prohibitive. In addition to heat density issues, IT equipment loads are becoming more dynamic, exacerbating the challenge of maintaining an acceptable thermal 'rate of change' in accordance with ASHRAE Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments. Simply put, cooling IT equipment too quickly can be just as dangerous as allowing it to run too hot. To effectively address these new realities, cooling solutions must not only minimize the mixing of hot and cold aisle airstreams and deliver dynamic cooling and airflow performance, but also properly match the fluctuating IT equipment heat loads and airflow.

Create Quotes
To grow a lot more, Eric has to find a way to multiply himself. He needs to create not just managers out of his workers, but people with the same entrepreneurial spirit. If Eric can't solve that problem, he will be limited by the number of hours he can be in one place at one time in a day.

Ceiling Quotes
This startling new data shows that in seven of the ten industries studied, the wage gap between male and female managers widened between 1995 and 2000, ... It's compelling evidence that the glass ceiling remains a powerful obstacle to women in the workforce, and it suggests things may be getting worse, not better.
