If 6 months ago you had told me I’d be posting articles about management on this blog, I probably would have politely nodded and internally thought you were nuts.  Management has never been my strength.  But this year I have become increasingly convinced of not just the importance of good management, but the centrality of it, for producing effective results.  Good management can look different in different countries, different organizations and with different personal styles, but whatever it looks like, I think strong management and leadership is essential for motivating a team, driving a vision forward, and making change happen.
