Coaching for Business, Achieving for Life

Respected? Feared? Hated? Loved?

Posted by thecoachingconnection on August 16, 2010

Here is a quote from an article on INC.com called, How to Keep Your Workers Happy:

Many people actually say cleaning the house is more enjoyable than sitting in the same room with their boss.

Of course, the feared/hated boss has NO awareness to know or feel this.  Respected and loved managers? They actually want to do well by their team and want to do a good job in their role.

My experience so far: there are too many jerks, assholes and unaware managers than anyone wants to admit.  I look forward to Robert Sutton’s latest book,  Good Boss-Bad Boss: How to be the Best.. and learn from the worst. His other book, the No-Asshole Rule: Building a Civilized Workplace and Surviving one that isn’t was awesome.
