Helicopter Micromanagement

Helicopter Micromanagement refers to a manager who pays extremely close attention to his or her subordinate's experiences and problems, above and beyond the normal micromanagement style normally exhibited.

My manager told me she is making a surprise appearance at the meet and greet today. Some people just have to observe everything and anything. I'm surprised she doesn't come to my house to make sure I brush my teeth correctly. Talk about helicopter micromanagement.

Micromanagement

Micromanagement is a term which describes the management of many small details in computer games. It has at least two senses, one referring to economic management and the other to combat tactics. Micromanagement has been a controversial aspect of game design for many years - some games minimize it while others treat it as an important skill.

Micro Manage

To look over the shoulders of EVERY last employee you PWN because you want to catch an employee doing something wrong.

Wow, Rick really knows how to manage people. Well, just people that can stand the constant bitching, and holier than thou attitude that Rick, the wannabe "I was a rocker, but now I'm your boss" delivers.

Micromanagement

A form of management practiced by neurotic, uptight and middle-aged white males. This form of management often involves nonsensical and brandish displays of masculinity. In addition to this, it is often characterized by repetitive and demeaning orders as well as the occasional scolding.

Micromanagement in your life:

Manager: Hey, I'm gonna need you to go ahead and skip your lunch and re stack everything in isles 12-16.

Employee: But I just stacked them this morning.

Manager: And when you get done that it's your turn to clean the public restroom, have it done before the end of your shift.
