Those of us without Machiavellian tendencies?

Not sure what you mean by that, but a manager is allowed to select, fine-tune, re-organize, reward and train their team in order to deliver on expectations. They are accountable for the results.

Think of a football team manager. They can't avoid knocking off players from the team as needed. They can't brood about being Machiavellian or something. That's not their job.
