11 Habits of the Worst Boss who

NO MIND SET
Boss, please change your mind. You
change it several times a day. When
reviewing a report, be Sure to make
Comments that run counter to
Previous ones. Leave the Employees
guessing. It keeps them alert.

2. NEVER SET PRIORITIES
Boss, be sure your employees don't know
what's important to you. You want the
best work possible, period. You don't
want them cutting corners just because
something isn't very important.
Everything is important. Always.

3. NEVER DELIVERY WITH CLARITY
Boss, If you don't like it, you don't like it.
You don't have to explain. They just need to
make it "better." If you give them too much
direction, how will they learn?
For example: "I don't know what you want
from me, just make the PowerPoint 'sexier.'"

4. NO COMMANDING POSITION
Boss, Bring your employees along to all
your meetings. But don't let them speak. By
not talking, they have to listen. Just like a
Dictaphone. Then they can remind you of
anything you napped through.

5. NEVER THANKING
Boss, thank your employees -- but only for
efforts below their skill level. "Thank you for
showing up today." "Nice handwriting on
that expense report." Begin the staff meeting
by thanking the intern for comb-binding your
files.

6. NO CLEAR AGENDA
Boss, Schedule weekly "all hands" meetings
that require half the employees to travel (to
you, of course). Agenda: they bring you up
to date on what they've been emailing you,
but you've been too busy to read. Don't
introduce anything new.

7. NEVER PREPARED
Boss, Ask your tech savvy employees to
take time from their projects to set up your
home computer, preferably when the maid
is there. Ideally, the request includes
troubleshooting your kids' iPods.

8. NO TIMELINES
Boss, you agree to deadlines and then
accelerate them. Ask loudly from the
hallway if the document is ready at 4:59pm.
Announce: "I'm here late tonight if you want
to finish it up."

9. ALWAYS CRITICISE
Boss, you always criticise and Schedule
"critical" meetings before holiday.
This is really dissappointing attitude for
employee.

10. SHOWING BOSS ATTITUDE
Boss, You always send emails at 2am from
your home. On Sunday and mark them urgent.

11. ALWAYS LEAVES JOBS ON OTHERS
Boss, Be careful not to get too wrapped up
in your employee's own goals. If you're too
supportive in helping them develop, they'll
leave you for another job. And that's not
good management.

Bad boss you are great, please change yourself.
Thank you,
