That means that bad managers are costing businesses the expertise of fantastic employees. Studies have shown that half of employees who simply don’t feel like they’re valued by their manager have plans to seek out alternative employment within the short-term. As a result, you might have left the business and moved elsewhere. Did that manager make you want to go to work every day? Probably not. Think back to your own experiences working in various organisations did you ever deal with a bad manager? You probably did. For every good manager there are a handful which are doing nothing for their employees, other than sitting at their luxury office desk on a daily basis. There are more bad managers out there than good ones. If however you develop yourself as a manager, always willing to learn and listen, you will find the business more than thriving, and growing in the process. Simply being ‘good enough’ isn’t going to inspire your staff towards greatness, and that means your business is simply going to tick along, not really doing anything impressive in the market. There is however a very big difference between being a manager and being a good manager. It’s the give and take side of life, and part and parcel of the modern office environment. For every downside of being a manager, there are several upsides too. The ability to be able to inspire people to success and greatness, watching a business start at the bottom and work its way up the food chain, the rush of excitement when a decision goes the right way and business booms.
Yes, management can be a stressful career, but it’s one which is worth it too. One wrong move, and all hell may break loose. These decisions may have a severe impact on the growth, or otherwise, of the business. It’s not about creating a stylish environment with your own CEO office furniture and ruling the roost! You also have responsibility for making high profile decisions. You have to juggle several balls in the air and keep everyone happy at the same time.
