The challenge in this respect has to do with the ability of a manager to convey passion when he/she doesn’t agree with the related company objective or directive. We are the mirror where our collaborators look at. A mirror reflects everything, the good and the bad, the joy and the dissatisfaction. How to ‘sell’ something we don’t believe in, is hard to manage.

Rajesh, i fully agree with you. But i can honestly say that i have seen countless instances where managers assigned tasks where they expected them to fail to be delivered, not only that but they made their feelings clear.

As once Michael Jordan said, I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can’t accept not trying
