Never bullied anybody to get things done, I make them like what I want them to do.<BR/><BR/>@ blogzilla<BR/><BR/>I guess, i need some more clarifications there.<BR/><BR/>@ bruce<BR/><BR/>great insight and advise there bruce.<BR/><BR/>@ mack<BR/><BR/>True. However, more often we are caught in a situation that we have to work for somebody who is far from the ideal. How do we adjust?<BR/>-we manage him / her (our boss) and subdue our ideals and emotions in favor of achieving corporate goals.Ronniehttp://youngurbanprofessionals.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4794872422811591377.post-11748000873127312008-03-17T04:56:00.000+08:002008-03-17T04:56:00.000+08:00I would say from experience a good "boss", is a good leader. I consider it an insult to be called the boss. I try to lead the team, and sometimes have to make the tough decisions, that is the leader's job. I try to push the glory down to the team members. We work together to get the job done, but they get the glory.Mackhttp://changecounts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4794872422811591377.post-11472309667899764342008-03-15T23:36:00.000+08:002008-03-15T23:36:00.000+08:00A smart boss is always going to give you 10 things to do and know that in reality you are only going to get about 7 done. Just do those 7 as well as you can and don't fret the small stuff. That's the start of a good relationship.Bruce Joneshttp://www.tradeshowhelp.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4794872422811591377.post-25946973400866516422008-03-15T01:12:00.000+08:002008-03-15T01:12:00.000+08:00I agree to disagree, but it could have some value to test on.blogzillawww.blogtbt.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4794872422811591377.post-6800337201245109482008-03-14T14:56:00.000+08:002008-03-14T14:56:00.000+08:00Bosses aren't the enemy. Bosses pretending to be friendly ARE. And an asshole is an asshole is an asshole.

If you behave in a professional manner and do not look at you boss as the enemy who steals your time any 'normal' boss will give you the respect that you give.<BR/><BR/>To know your boss is very important since you will be able to perform according to the expectations. Many individuals look at all other options as the source for the problems but never ask if it is them who are the source that causes the problems.Apollowww.vigltd.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4794872422811591377.post-15257970215097238782008-03-11T01:50:00.000+08:002008-03-11T01:50:00.000+08:00Strangely enough, years ago when I was working temp jobs, I was sent out to a place where I was "warned" about the guy in charge of the department. Well I don't know what the problem was, we got along just fine. If you are professional and competent and straightfoward in your dealings with others - no matter what rung of the ladder they are on - things can and will run smoothly. The man I speak of was "known" to have a hard to get along with reputation. Maybe for some, but since he reminded me so much of my father, just a no-nonsense approach to business which I enjoy, we became good friends (and I started a 3-year stint as an employee after naming my own price).<BR/><BR/>Oimdiane (entrecard)<BR/>Diane ScottM4Mhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15756701936544423530noreply@blogger.com
