What is easier: managing employees or managing managers?

On the lighter side , It depends whether one is an employee or a manager or the one who is above them. 

People management has been one of the most interesting and challenging aspect in an organsiation. My experience has been kind of mixed , I have seen employees wtih big egos hard to manage while I have had cooperative managers who are down to earth and vice versa. 

Typically , If the scale is to be tipped , Its difficult to manage employees . Managers are sometimes more accountable than an employee and hence they can be easily managed , The accountability factor will make them more responsible and hence easy to manage.

I think it's easy to manage managers because they provide support, and work towards the same goal...Sometimes the managers appear to be tough, but it is actually that they ask more questions, more details that is needed to make a decision.. 

In a team, there is a different attitude person and most of the cases people's take on decisions is different.. 

So, it's easy to manage managers than managing employees..

I would suggest that managers would be more demanding, liable to ask "why" when faced with something they are either not sure of or don't necessarily agree with. Workers on "the shop floor" are more likely just to get on with the job, working on the premise "ours not to reason why"! I generalise of course as this philosophy wouldn't apply to ALL managers or ALL workers!

I  am sure that managing Managers is easier than Managing Employees because Managers are the Key Functioning of any Organisation and Employees are the Teams of Followers and are counts in Numbers also but Managers are assigned as the mode of Communications between the Head Management and the other Employees/Staff.
