  Mayhem often caused by micro-managers
In contrast, shared management allows junior executives to exercise initiative, learning from their successes and failures, preparing them for the day they take over the reins of management, ensuring long-term success.
The only time the senior manager should hear from the subordinates is (1) when subordinates need additional clarification or assistance in removing impediments or (2) when the assigned tasks are complete.
First they must realize that senior managers in successful businesses are not being paid to be more productive themselves; they are being paid to make their subordinates more productive.

 Micromanagement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In business management, micromanagement is a management style where a manager closely observes or controls the work of their employees, generally used as a pejorative term.
Micromanagment may arise from internal sources, such as concern for details, increased performance pressure, or insecurity.
It can also be seen as a tactic used by managers to eliminate unwanted employees, either by creating standards employees cannot meet leading to termination, or by creating a stressful workplace causing the employee to leave.

Management of a drip irrigation system with a controller reduces labor requirements and allows precise measurements and applications of water and fertilizer.

The key for fertilizer management is not to maintain the high levels that were present early in the season throughout the life of the crop.

 Organization Studies: Good visions, bad micro-management and ugly ambiguity: contradictions of leadership in a ...
One element in this discourse is that managers and their leadership matter, that leaders are central in determining direction and overall guidelines, in setting strategy and creating visions of the future, without which any company, according to leadership scholars, would drift purposeless and eventually lose its competitive edge.
However, when asked to specify, managers ended up talking of administrative activities and also referred to the need to be directive, clearly deviating from what is normally understood as visionary and strategy activities.
Instead, the managers seemed to be caught in what appears to be almost the opposite, what they themselves refer to as micro-management', that is, 'bad leadership'.

Every manager knows that employees wishing to be left alone by their managers try using the term as a shield: "Don't micro-manage me!" But just as often, it serves as a lame excuse wielded by managers who don't want to be bothered with supervisory responsibilities: "I don't want to be a micro-manager."
Or else the manager never separates him/herself from the work at all and thus it's as if the manager is using the worker as a marionette to accomplish the task at hand.
The manager is knowledgeable about the work to be done and also familiar with the ability, skill and work habits of the worker.

 Introduction to Digital Rights Management DRM
So now when we talk about digital rights management we are talking about works of intellectual property that are processed by digital computers (or even analogue ones).
But it depends upon how effective your cryptography is. A number of disasters have already overtaken those who either chose to implement poor algorithms or failed to understand that you have to do something significantly better than password protection if you are going to protect something that has significant value for your business.
It is not necessary for this paper to do more than state that many of the ‘industry standard’ solutions failed to recognize the real management issues of cryptography and therefore failed to provide the protection that they seemed to claim.
