When I was working I was sent on a management course with about a dozen other managers, male and female. We did a test that measured what type of manager we were by our places on a triangle after the test was marked. Each point of the triangle reflected a management position. Did we lead from the front back or middle. I and one of the men were right up the leading from the front point. We then did a similar test on communicating with staff and I came out as being very participatory and good at communicating. When I commented to the course leader that these two traits of personality seemed at odds he told they weren't because I communicated to persuade. I was assertive/bossy but persuasive.
When I thought about it afterwards I realised he was quite right.
Smart meters. Has anyone had a bad experience?
