A great way to get an overall picture of how well you are doing as a manager is by seeing how secure your job is. This screen is topped by the managers deemed to be the furthest from the sack and ends with vacant positions. Use the Filter to look at the positions of managers in different nations.

At the start of your career, and when you first come into a new job, you can expect a honeymoon period in which mistakes, reshuffling and poor results are more likely to be forgiven. This means that your job security may mask a certain frustration from fans and your chairman, whose lack of confidence in you may turn into pressure once any grace period ends.

Use the confidence screen and take heed of any messages you get to improve your job security. And, of course, registering good results won't do you any harm either.
