Employees felt a sense of trust in their managers, and managers a sense of duty to their employees. That feeling has largely dissipated. An increasing number of books, magazine articles, and newspaper columns have been written denigrating the managerial profession, blaming the average manager for the distrust in our political institutions, the collapse of our economic system, and the stresses in our societal compositions. It is not right, it is not accurate, and it is not fair.\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Good Manager: A Guide for the Twenty-First Century Manager\u003c\/i\u003epresents the six key attributes of a good manager.
