In last few months I observed that some of my friends resigned from their positions. Even these companies are the most known/Strongest MNCs. I asked few of them why you left/resigned, expecting an answer like “I was looking more challenging role”, or “Same post/responsibilities killing their talents”, but instead they said “They couldn’t work with their bosses any more”.
The work was stimulating, the team was great but their mangers were unbearable to work with. In this situation companies lose good employees on a regular basis and all the managers sit around a conference table trying to address employee attrition, developing strategies for employee retention.
After this observation I decided to do some research where most bosses failed to be an ideal for their sub-ordinates. Or we can say how we can find out bad bosses in every company including us. No doubt somewhere we are also boss for some one.
Divides and Rule Policy: Bad bosses always believe in Divide and Rule policy. They always manipulate their team members, employees even their own bosses. They always have this phycology that in this they will get more importance of their team members/employees/Colleagues and their own bosses.
Lack of communication power: Bad bosses always try to hide the right information from their team members. They always keep all the information with them. This situation really demotivates their team members, when they get the right information in middle or at the end of each work/task and they need to start their work from scratch.
Always Feel Insecure: Bad bosses always feel insecure whenever they see someone in their team/company have more capabilities to grow and give batter results then them. In this situation they always use all their efforts to pull that team member/colleague down. And many times they avoid giving any important task to that team member so that he/she can’t show his/her real talent to get the job done.
Make unrealistic plans: Bad Bosses always make Big/Unrealistic plan just to impress top management. It is common in every organization that bosses accept a plan even they knew, their team don’t have that much related capable resources to achieve this plan. This condition put extra burden over the existing team members to finish this plan on time.
Politics and Inequity: Most common issue in every bad boss, they made workplace as a politics ground. Instead of concentrate over the work, or over the team support, bad bosses always busy to make political plan to show someone down in their team/company. These type of bosses always keep some Chaplus employees with them and feed (either they are working or not) them to support their political plans to get down someone else in company/team.
Backbiters: Backbiters bosses always talk about everyone behind their back. Remember this type of bosses always show that they are doing good rather than someone else. And in this case they always talk firstly about them who is the most sincere in their team/company, so that everyone start making/thinking wrong image about those sincere people.
Lack of Confidences: As they are not trust worthy due to their negative images they always have low confidence issue. Bad bosses always order/assign work to their team with marking that super bosses decided this they don’t. This always shows that they don’t have confidence that team/employees will accept their decision or not. They knew someone can raise finger if they declare that they took this decision their self not by the management.
Never talk straight: Bad bosses never talk straight about any work. They always talk in Mari-go-round way but never to the point. You will go to discuss some issue but they will never talk about that issue and will start talking about something else.
May be the above given point are less, but these are the main factor that destroy a boss image as an ideal boss. It’s not about our bosses; remember it’s about us also because we are also the future boss. Hope this article help to reduce our negativ habits, so that we can buide an example of a good boss.
