I think management is about just that – managing people via man-to-man skills.
Meaning of the quote
The key point of this quote is that being a good manager is about using your people skills to work directly with and guide your team members. Great managers don't just boss people around - they use their ability to communicate and connect with each person to help them do their best work. It's all about building relationships and working side-by-side with your team.
