Tips for Managers and Bosses...
-
Never give me work in the morning. Always wait until 4:00 and then bring it to me. The challenge of a deadline is refreshing.
If it's really a rush job, run in and interrupt me every 10 minutes to inquire how it's going. That helps. Or even better, hover behind me, advising me at every keystroke.
Always leave without telling anyone where you're going. It gives me a chance to be creative when someone asks where you are.
If my arms are full of papers, boxes, books, or supplies, don't open the door for me. I need to learn how to function as a paraplegic and opening doors with no arms is good training.
If you give me more than one job to do, don't tell me which is the priority. I am psychic.
Do your best to keep me late. I adore this office and really have nowhere to go or anything to do. I have no life beyond work.
If a job I do pleases you, keep it a secret. If that gets out, it could mean a promotion.
If you don't like my work, tell everyone. I like my name to be popular in conversations. I was born to be whipped.
If you have special instructions for a job, don't write them down. In fact, save them until the job is almost done. No use confusing me with useful information.
Never introduce me to the people you're with. I have no right to know anything. In the corporate food chain, I am plankton. When you refer to them later, my shrewd deductions will identify them.
Be nice to me only when the job I'm doing for you could really change your life and send you straight to manager's hell.
Tell me all your little problems. No one else has any and it's nice to know someone is less fortunate. I especially like the story about having to pay so much taxes on the bonus check you received for being such a good manager.
Wait until my yearly review and THEN tell me what my goals SHOULD have been. Give me a mediocre performance rating with a cost of living increase. I'm not here for the money anyway. -

Are you aware of the difference between a boss and a leader? Consider these ten traits:
1) A boss creates fear in a staff. A leader builds confidence.
2) A boss says, "I". A leader says "We".
3) A boss knows how a job should be done. A Leader shows how a career should be forged.
4) A boss relies on authority. A leader relies on cooperation.
5) A boss drives. A leader leads.
6) A boss fixes blame. A leader solve problems and fixed mistakes.
7) A boss rules over the problem 10 percent of the work force. A Leader works alongside the cooperative 90 percent.
A boss eventually causes resentment to grow. A leader foster growing enthusiasm.
9) A boss makes work drudgery. A leader makes work interesting.
10) A boss see problems as disasters that will destroy the company. A leader sees problems as opportunities that a united staff can overcome and turn into growth.
Are you just a boss, or are you a leader? -

My fav line I've heard from every boss:
"I have a open door policy. "
Translation:
"Oh, I am not interested in listening to your crap but its for you to come in and listen to my crapping on you and perhaps teach you a thing or two about how important my manager job is when I direct you to do your work. During these valuable sessions where, I the manager donwload myself, you better listen to how me and take note how to curry me up and perhaps you might get some increament or if I really like you, the promotion. If you do not know how to "zhuo ren", then be prepared to be severly shortchanged and challenge me if you dare, I'll make sure your life is worse than hell. Once I don't like you or have no more use for you, the door is open for you to kick you out... "
I've never met any leader (note the singular). Most "manager" are self serving bean counters. -
