Management Aspirant Mugs

I'm going to practice on you before I start managing other people.

Apart from your mother, who else thinks you're doing a good job as Chairman of the company?

'You really want that promotion, don't you, Sherman?'

What else is there to wish for?

"Listen Herb, once you become the boss and decide who gets a raise, then you can have a raise."

"Ms. Ray, you're getting a promotion! You're no longer my Gal Friday. You're now my Gal Saturday."

"So, do you see yourself as a car valet who writes screenplays or a screen writer who parks cars?"

'If I'd had someone to help me when I started, I might have made CEO...actually, I did make CEO, but you know what I mean.'

Great training inspires employees: 'I see myself doing you job before too long...'

I'm willing to start at the bottom and work my way up to your job..

'I'd like to be one of those people who sets targets for other people.'

"I'm sorry but we do not promote just for participation."

"Progress is coming right along!"

'I'm so proud of Trevor for getting an early start on his negative campaign for Student Council.'

"Of course I'm not quitting school, Dad! If anything, I've learned that if you want to succeed, you need passion and leadership and a whatever-it-takes attitude!"

'We're ready to move you to the top, Hopkins... but we don't know how much loneliness you can tolerate.'

"Boss, I'm more than just a cashier and mopper-upper guy."

"Shouldn't be long before we're at the top."

"Where do you see yourself in five years?"

Management Styles - Inspirational

"Well, if I can't get an increase based on merit, how about one based on the cost of living beyond my means?"

"And what do you want to be when you grow up little girl, a nurse or a secretary?"

'Mom, I can't go inside now! Business is great!!'

'I'm hoping that this will take off and I will earn enough to pay my way through medical school some day.'

'Determined little guy.'

"Let's face it Simkins, the only way you'll ever get to medical school is by donating your body to science."

'Well, you're lousy at Maths, but I'm sure you'll become a great CEO one day...'

"I enjoyed your request for a raise. I've seldom read a more aspirational document."

'Can I be a decision maker? Well, yes and no.'

Money And Prestige

"You said you wanted more responsibility around here. I agree. Empty this."

Soldier looking in the mirror and seeing a general.

'Sure, who wouldn't want to be a secretary. Secretary of State.'

'I don't usually deal with headhunters on jobs that pay $21,500.'

'Why can't I ever lead?'
