Boss and you ..

Society Business and Career

I have always been very careful about the employments I choose … One of the biggest factors for me has always been the person that I report into… whether they are someone i can genuinely respect and turn to in difficult decisions …

What qualities do you look for in your manager ? and do you believe working under a competent manager can make you a better at what you do? :hmmm:

Re: Boss and you ..

I’ve found that I learn more with a boss who provides positive criticism because I know which areas of my work needs to be improved. However, these bosses can be very cruel when it comes to changes in a person’s life e.g. pregnancy, illness etc. They have very high standards from everyone.

On the other hand, some managers are very friendly but don’t know how to maintain efficiency in the business and can become a bit slack with employees and their excuses.

I tend to look for a mix between two extremes :balley:

Re: Boss and you ..

yea true. But then I have left many jobs over the issue of a mean/slacking boss. I mean my last boss was horrendous. He expected me to work way after 5:00 pm and got really angry when I was late for work the next day :kursi: i really really disliked him.

you just have to churn through them until you find the right fit :slight_smile:
