You're making that up. A manager gets stuff done by having
subordinates who are motivated, smart, and responsible. And a good
manager will find and develop anybody who has the potential.
The "class" here is the class of people who get stuff done, as
distinct from the other class whose main function is to complain about
how unfair life is.
