Micromanagement All the Way Up - Student Affairs Washington State University Employee Review

It's a "ol' boys club" at WSU. The managers who have worked there have often worked there for their entire professional careers. This leads to managers who have no idea how to manage and have no perspective on how other organizations are managed. It seems to be this way all the way up the chain of command as several high-profile employees get promoted into new positions and then retire soon afterwards due to the toxic work environment fostered by their new manager.
