Don't be afraid to think out of the box or be an outiler.
Listen carefully to ees that offer up well thought out, different opinions. The very last thing you need is all the sheep nodding in agreement and telling you how smart you are.
My only regret as a first time manager, middle manager, and senior level manager is that at first I waited too long to release poor performers, those not suited to the business. Failure to do so sends the absolute wrong message to your best team members...those that work hard, work smart, and punch above their weight. Sends a message that mediocrity is rewarded.
