Like how sweet is a cup of tea? Or like salt to taste. Being a "Good" or "Bad" #manager has a range. Also, there is no one size fits to all approach to #management and #leadership
It helps that we have a range to play. Makes conformance easier and realistic. You have a real chance to be “Good” and an equal probability to be “Bad”. The choice is always ours.

If you want to tilt the scale towards "Good" #management, stop being a JERK. Remember, you deal with #people 
People leave bad bosses and people leave good bosses. There are many triggers for employee #resignations. Bad #management is one of those
I have quit #jobs and I must say I was fortunate to discuss my resignation and #career plans with a great #boss.
#Facebook found that when they wanted to retain talent but they quit anyway, it was not because they reported to bad #managers. Employees quit Facebook because:
1. they didn’t like the work
2. their strengths were underused, or
3. they weren’t growing in their careers".

Dr. Jason McPherson, @CultureAmp Chief Data Scientist, conducted a similar research to test this common belief that #people leave #bosses, not companies.
The discovery:
1. People leave bad #managers. However, it is not the number one reason #people leave a company
2. Managers make a difference in "good" companies
3. In “bad” companies, good or bad managers make little to no difference to a person’s decision to leave
