Managers

«I don't think a manager should be judged by whether he wins the pennant, but by whether he gets the most out of the twenty-five men he's been given.»
«If the Earth could be made to rotate twice as fast, managers would get twice as much done. If the Earth could be made to rotate twenty times as fast, everyone else would get twice as much done since all the managers would fly off.»
«I'm slowly becoming a convert to the principle that you can't motivate people to do things, you can only demotivate them. The primary job of the manager is not to empower but to remove obstacles.»
«I don't believe a manager ever won a pennant. Casey Stengel won all those pennants with the Yankees. How many did he win with the Boston Braves and Mets?»
«I believe managing is like holding a dove in your hand. If you hold it too tightly you kill it, but if you hold it too loosely, you lose it.»
«I am a typed director. If I made Cinderella, the audience would immediately be looking for a body in the coach.»
«Managing is getting paid for home runs that someone else hits.»
«Leave the President's family business to him. You will have plenty to do without trying to manage the First Family. They are likely to do fine without your help.»
«Managers in all too many American companies do not achieve the desired results because nobody makes them do it.»
