The Open Space Policy for Managers

Open Door Policy. The idea of this policy is that every manager’s door is open to all employees, I dislike this policy.

1. it communicates is that managers have a door, and ordinary employees don’t.
2. it is OK for employees to ignore their own manager, and to discuss and negotiate matters with the superiors of their superiors.

I prefer to have a desk somewhere among our teams. It is the same kind of desk that they have, with the same kind of stone-age-workstation. And I drink the same miserable goo that is being passed off
