I suspect you're going to start with a screwdriver?

Our director told me adding you to my team would put new tools in my managerial toolbox.

You know,because he's screwed.  I pondered a crowbar.  And then a hammer, "so I fit in the round hole?"  So many hand tools, so little comedic real estate.

If you haven't heard the phrase Managerial or Leadership Toolbox, you're obviously not completing your managerial bingo card. Like many other things, it has the potential to become a list, complete with checkboxes. Inflexible. Applied to all cases, regardless of subtle differences in individuals and use cases.  It is never a positive experience for me when someone congratulates me on adding a tool.

Snarky: Our director told me adding you to my team would put new tools in my managerial toolbox.
