After doing a little more research on Rodney Adkins, he is very well-known for what this article calls his "management prowess" and received the award from Black Enterprise as Black Enterprise's Corporate Executive of the Year in 2011. While a bit dated, it still shows that he has been an excellent manager for years.

While technology is mostly beneficial, it shouldn't be taking away from the human skills like personal communication and physically checking up on projects. ]]> 2019-03-05 16:19:40 UTC https://padlet.com/katherinemcgarvey/MAN2021_McGarvey/wish/337983666 katherinemcgarvey https://padlet.com/katherinemcgarvey/MAN2021_McGarvey/wish/338021677 I thought this quote was pertinent because it showed how Steve Jobs approached management as a whole and he really understood that being a manager was guiding people to do what they should do even when they may not want to. In my opinion, a great manager utilizes both leadership and management strategies to rally their employees. ]]> 2019-03-05 17:22:22 UTC https://padlet.com/katherinemcgarvey/MAN2021_McGarvey/wish/338021677 katherinemcgarvey https://padlet.com/katherinemcgarvey/MAN2021_McGarvey/wish/338222477 This article explained that Steve Jobs, and his replacement Tim Cook, both have/had extremely high approval ratings from their employees. I think it's important to cite this, because it proves that even though he may not have been the strongest with his Human Skills, his employees still believed that he was doing everything right with the way he lead the company.]]> 2019-03-06 03:11:35 UTC https://padlet.com/katherinemcgarvey/MAN2021_McGarvey/wish/338222477 katherinemcgarvey https://padlet.com/katherinemcgarvey/MAN2021_McGarvey/wish/339600318 I chose my article review to be on social responsibility, because I think it's important to our planet.

One quote in here by Ken Blanchard talked about how leaders today are not like typical bosses from the past, they are not leading from a position of power.
