Quick note, management questions

vom_marloweI'm working on Yet Another Organizational Management post. This one includes lots of thoughts on best practices, how to successfully review work, how to review employees, how to reduce toxicity and/or improve employee satisfaction, strategic use of people, and more. At first, I started writing these because of questions friends were asking about nfps and the OTW issues, but I've gotten more feedback about them as general explanations of workplace unhappiness and how healthy management works.
Please feel free to ask questions about management in general, and I'll do my best to answer.
I'd like to reiterate, by the way, that I like the OTW as a whole and while I think the organization needs some help (especially in terms of strategic management), I am very fond of the people in it. Many of my friends are members. None of my comments should be taken as condemnation of those in OTW as bad people; on the contrary, people who volunteer a ton of their time to charity are awesome.
In the meantime, I'm having a bit of chronic pain flare, so the upcoming post may take a while.
