Don't be a boss, be a leader

in #uganda6 years ago

People in most cases don’t leave bad jobs, they leave bad bosses
Types of bad bosses
Marionette- These managers play it safe to preserve their position and privileges. They just follow orders, no loyalty to employees.
King Kong- Bosses who reach the top and forget where they came from, superiority complex and like to draw lines between management and staff, don’t build relationships too.
Superman- Think the organization revolves around them, behave like they own the company, sole decision making.
Taskmaster- Focus on the bottom line, suffocate micromanagement, demoralise and kill creativity and as if that’s not enough they don’t treat people with dignity and respect.
Instead of being of being a boss all the time, adjust to be a leader as well and to be a good leader start by being a good follower

  • Seek out opportunities to lead
  • Adopt behaviours that people associate with leaders
  • Show exceptionalism relative to your peers
  • Look to advance interests of their groups than personal interests
  • Leaders need to be seen as one of us not one of them
  • Coaches, supports and inspires his team
  • Puts the interests of their team before theirs
  • Develop a safe atmosphere – risk taking and feedback is allowed
  • Take care of their team, focus to help everyone around them succeed
  • Push their team to grow and become their very best
    Hope we all create a safe working environment for each other
