Usage notes
edit- The word is used in a narrower sense in German than it is in English. Generally, it refers to a member of the management of a company or profit-oriented organization, usually one of larger size. Due to this use, German Manager may have a negative connotation, particularly in Socialist or left-wing contexts.
