Bad Bosses

Have you ever had that boss that you just could not stand? Maybe they were a micromanager, or a blame thrower, or they were threatened by you. How do you handle working for someone who makes you work, or your life, difficult?

This program will examine some of the common types of bad bosses, why their behavior is bad, and what you should do with the boss. We will look at volatile bosses, micromanagers, paranoid bosses, competitors, blame-throwers, power-players, witch-hunters, laissez faire bosses, pleasers, disrespectful actions, and bosses without boundaries.

Most importantly, this program will help to identify if you are actually the bad boss and how to handle that! We will review various archetypes of managers and dysfunctional syndromes and will give the audience real-world skills for dealing with those problem bosses.
We will also review common combinations of bad bosses, and most importantly we will discuss reflective techniques to help you identify your own areas for self-improvement.
