Abstract
Two, broad, alternative philosophies are described for engineering managers who wish to improve the performance of their subordinates. Each of those alternatives is subdivided into more specific courses of action. Those actions are characterized according to their probable effects on the attitudes and responses of subordinates. Contributions are taken from transactional analysis, effectiveness training, nonverbal communication and positive reinforcement.
