• Does the manager attribute success to the team?  The manager who is able to repeatedly attribute success to his teams is more liked than one who prefers basking in the success.
• Does the manager reprimand the team member in public?  A manager who praises the team member in public for achievements and scolds in private for failures is more liked.
• Does the manager empathise with your problems?  The manager who expects only performance but is not interested in listening to the issues or finding solutions for the team is definitely less liked than a manager who empathises with the personal and professional issues and works towards finding solutions.  A manager is not one who knows how to give orders, but is one who provides solutions and demonstrates higher end thinking than the team members.
