How To Identify BAD Management
Bad management is, sadly, all around us: the indicators of bad, weak or ineffective will vary from workplace to workplace, but the following will almost certainly be there.
Avoid falling into the following traps at all costs:
- Fails to communicate clear expectations
- Has favourites and uses them all the time
- Pays no attention to the personal needs of employees
- Badmouths others on a regular basis
- Ignores and does not seek out feedback
- Has to prove themselves at any cost
- Lacks self-awareness
- Betrays the trust of others
- Fails to listen to anything other than their inner voice
- Puts own needs in front of the needs of anyone else, regardless of position or power
- Has very limited verbal communication skills
- Intimidates others when there is no need to do so
- Is impatient and abrasive
- Fails to recognise the value and inputs of others
- Is reactive
- Fails to deliver on what they promise to do
- Is easily threatened
Work consistently to make sure that YOU do not show any of the above in the way in which you manage.
Good Luck!
