Correct. 20 K-Points.

A person is a competent manager if they competently fulfil the purpose of the role. The real question is this: What is the purpose of a manager? Once that has been established, it's easier to identify qualities that are beneficial.

I don't agree that a manager is good, simply because they "do their job to the best of their ability" or follow the rules.

I think a manager can try as hard as they want... they could be online every second of their free time... but that, in no way, makes them a good manager.
Make that 40 K-Points ^_^

Undoubtedly this hinges as much on skills as attitude. I'm sure you can recognise the trend amongst those who place higher importance on the latter.
