Bossy sounds meanish....I prefer to think of it as making sure the project gets finished in a timely manner, while treating people with respect, as long as they are not fucking off...pardon my French. I find that my tone sets the mood...and, when I want something done, I try to communicate and anticipate that the person I am speaking with completely understands what I'm asking them to do. I give them opportunity to question and try to cover anything that could be misunderstood. Plus, I ask every day how things are going..are there problems? Progress? Anything needed? Staying in touch with those who do work for you is important....and approachability...that's essential...
I work hard. I expect hard work. And, as Sir Moby stated, I want value......that doesn't always mean spending more...it's spending smart.
