Adaptable Manager

I like this answer by Joe Girardi:

C- How much did you follow how Tom Coughlin, at the age of 61, needed to change his approach as the Giants' coach and ended up winning a Super Bowl?

G- "Someone asked me what type of manager I would be. I said I'm a manager that's willing to adapt to the people that are around me and the type of players you have. You can't necessarily have a regimented way that you play because the parts may not fit the picture. So you have to adapt your managerial style to the parts that you have."
"I think one of the jobs of a manager is make sure it's an enjoyable place to work every day, even during the bad times. You have to find a way to make it enjoyable. Sometimes, you got to do things a little different. Sometimes, you got to be a little off the wall, as off the wall as I can be."
