New Political Role T-Shirts

Settlements dialogue.

Businessman on stilts: 'I had to step over a lot of people to get where I am today.'

Leadership suits you

"What was I thinking?!"

"On the plus side, I finally have a key to the executive washroom."

'The ultimate sign of success is when no one puts you on hold.'

Unto thee shall pass the executive laser pointer. Take this authority and delegate it.

"Before I read the financial report I have to ask... do any of you have a weapon?"

Not a surprise, coming from the new boss - who looks about 6 years old.

Office meeting

"It's all a matter of planning...."

New company policy...next time you miss a meeting I need a note from a doctor or a subpoena from a judge.

The new boss brought a sense of urgency.

The role of administration.

The little engine that could delegate.

'Good new. . . we're moving you to a bigger desk!'

Desk sign: 'Brown-nose'.

'I still say there are better ways to decide which positions to eliminate!'

"We can still be friends, Roger. I just don't want you to be one of my vice-presidents anymore."

"They're going to be tough shoes to fill."

'What can we do about this leadership course?'

'I'm grooming you for this position and giving you a makeover.'

"I know everyone see me as a manager, but really I am a leader."

"I got the promotion. Instead of Wednesdays, I'm now the one who gets blamed when things go wrong on Tuesdays."

"Norman, leadership is about more than telling everyone to be more like you."

"I'm a big believer in micromanagement."

"I've made many bad decisions, not all of them are going to be popular."

'Well, you DID know this job was dangerous when you took it.'

"I'm glad my team places me on a pedestal."

"I think, Hayward, one can just slow down and still smell the roses."

'When I'm old enough to vote, I'm going to select Santa Claus as a write-in candidate.'
