Most people tend to feel more sympathy for the subordinate than for the boss. Call it identification, empathy or whatever you prefer. There are even hundreds of libraries where bad leaders are alluded to. To its main negative features, to the Chronos Syndrome, to its key role as causes of various misfortunes, etc. However, there is not much letter about it from some groups of employees who agree to bring down their boss.
I had to see up close on more than one occasion how a boss is slowly cooked over the coals, encouraging his rapid exit from the organization and through a door that is considerably smaller than the one he entered. So today I want to give some warning signs to be prepared to face this situation.
Signs that your team does not want to work with you
1. No one tells you where the files are stored
As is known, to be able to work you need information, and in this aspect virtual registers are essential. As we cannot count on sufficient data, it will be directly impossible to arrive at a good result. Or it can also happen that we waste too much time trying to track what we are looking for, making us less effective in the task.
2. They tell you things that are not, leaving you offside
Not only with the idea of becoming a player of rumors, but more than anything making room for the saying to sell you rotten fish. A typical example is when you find yourself giving arguments to a customer or supplier that has no reason to exist and you notice when one of them says to you "But who told you that they never accepted checks if I paid like this 20 years ago?" or “Since when do you need 3 budgets to contribute, if you have never done so?
3. They comply with the instructions you give them, but at the wrong time or incomplete
In order that you can not blame a breach, the gambeta is given under the excuse of: "We finished it, so you can not complain." But of course, they do it from infinite claims on your part, arriving late, providing a sloppy or low value final work.
4. They talk to your superior, about issues that could perfectly solve with you
Whether it's asking for permission, suggesting something or claiming something. They know perfectly well that in all cases you are the one indicated hierarchically, however, the intention is to transform you into an invisible or directly non-existent person.
5. They maliciously obey you
I owe this concept to Ricardo and Claudio, historical clients and avid readers of issues related to management. It consists of doing something that you know is going to be wrong, but abiding by the slogan with the idea of leaving the shift manager as stupid (again).
6. No one tells you the customs of the company
For example, dress casually on Fridays. That way, you could quickly feel as misplaced as someone who is dressed as Batman at a baptism.
7. They leave you alone in the common spaces
It is true that there are bosses who as a rule or who will know what, prefer to avoid these spaces so that their collaborators do not get confused, thus avoiding a "pegoteo that would not help in everyday life", on their own terms. But it must also be said that there are situations in which the opposite occurs, with the employees themselves refusing to be with their leader during lunch, taking away the chance to establish links with others. Almost comparable to the figure of the civilian dead in ancient Rome, I must say that this creates one of the most difficult circumstances for the honoree to tolerate.
8 and final. They slide unverifiable data about you
Among the brightest things that touched me to hear, I quote here: "They told me in another job he grabbed pineapples with a partner. So they kicked him out " or" I know a neighbor from his neighborhood. They say that he owes even the one from the little farm around the house. ” Last: “Drink whiskey every night, that's why the red face in the morning. Didn't you notice that he speaks to you half on his side, so that he doesn't notice his breath? ”…
In short, it is about being warned to be able to take action on time, either by talking to collaborators or by starting a job search…
