55.        I agree that supervisors should under most circumstances merely tell subordinates + W1 {4 R3 ]; o2 @8 W& `* F
what to do, but not necessarily how to do it. Of course, employees need adequate ) j  o/ N" j: m. q
training in order to do a job. But beyond that, trusting employees to discover and

surprising rewards that outweigh any pitfalls of such an approach.& B$ a9 d) `/ ?0 C6 x
      First of all, restraint in directing the how-to aspect of a project signals the

confidence, the subordinate will often respond with his or her best work. This 0 W8 g% X' s7 o' t# h5 E/ O
phenomenon lends truth to the adage that people rise to the level of what others expect

supervisor imparts a larger share of responsibility for the project to the subordinate. This # u# d- i% k4 m
alleviates some of the burden from the supervisor, who may have more time for other 9 Y. p- |1 c. l  d  C/ ^8 R
tasks as a result. At the same time, when the subordinate shares in the responsibility, he

approach. Instead, supervisors should assign tasks without directing each step. When
