Evasive: She did her job fine.
She was a pretty nice person.
Disrespectful: She knew her
stuff, but she did not give my
colleagues or me any real guidance. It
is like we were fending for ourselves.
She rarely stood up for us either. I do
not really think she should be a
manager.
Effective: My previous manager
had excellent technical skills and was
very agreeable as a colleague. I would
have liked more support from her at
times, but her hands-off style meant
that I had to become resourceful in
problem solving and negotiating with
colleagues.
