Conventional wisdom holds that getting close to employees can compromise objectivity and the ability to make tough management decisions. "I dramatically disagree with that," Sandberg says. "I believe in bringing your whole self to work. We are who we are. When you try to have this division between your personal self and professional self, what you really are is stiff... That doesn't mean people have to tell me everything about their personal lives. But I'm pretty sharing of mine." being open with your employees, she believes, means that nothing is a surprise to them - even if you fire them.
Amen!
