    Twenty-six of 42 presidents, including Bill Clinton, were lawyers. Seven were generals. George W. Bush becomes the first with an MBA.
    Those who have had Bush for a boss since the mid-1980s—in the【C1】________of oil, baseball and Texas state government—describe his management【C2】________as straight from the pages of the organizational-behavior【C3】________he studied while getting his masters of business administration【C4】________at Harvard University in 1975.
    He manages by what is known【C5】________"walking around, " having learned that sitting behind a desk and passing out memos does【C6】________to energize anyone.
    He has a reputation for fueling "creative tension"【C7】________his subordinates, encouraging them to take and defend opposing【C8】________. That sacrifices harmony, but puts ideas to the test and lets Bush【C9】________above the fray, where he can offer guidance instead of barking【C10】________. Imagine the creative tension that may erupt【C11】________the likes of Secretary of State-designate Colin Powell and Defense Secretary—【C12】________Donald Rumsfeld.
    Above all, former employees say that he is a master at delegating【C13】________installing measures of accountability—ways of knowing【C14】________subordinates are getting the job done without looking【C15】________any shoulders. That frees Bush for strategic thinking—perhaps【C16】________two words hammered into MBA students most—which means thinking【C17】________to seize opportunities and to derail threats to the best of plans.
    "George was my【C18】________, " says Tom Schieffer, who served as president of the Texas Rangers under Bush【C19】________1991 and 1995. "But he never made me feel that way. He went out of his way to treat me as a【C20】________, not a subordinate. "
    That’s one trait that might be of concern, says Michael Useem, director of the Wharton Center for Leadership and Change at the University of Pennsylvania. It’s important for subordinates to feel part of the team, but not just because the boss craves popularity. Just as in the military, it must be understood who is in charge when the final order is given. [br] 【C1】
