Sure, great leaders never lose sight of their core business, they pay attention to managing risk, etc., Real game changers understand the power of people and relationships, and they embody this in both their construction and implementation.

Don’t try to over explain and (given that most people quit because of their relationship with their boss) don’t bother trying to offer any “constructive” feedback to your boss at this point. Industries are small and, in my experience, jerk bosses seem to be powerfully adept at managing their external reputations. Happy leading!

Red Flag # 8 – You can’t take constructive criticism from any level in the organization and only hire or work with people who are not as good as you. Afterall, no one can do it as well as you can. Red Flag #7 - You have to be the smartest person in the room (and often secretly find yourself thinking this very thought).

Great managers do the same for their teams. Sure, that may, from time to time mean setting boundaries or correcting errant behaviour, but what lives behind the constructive feedback is a true desire to help your employees succeed. We want to see them succeed… to follow their passions… to do their best. Happy leading!

Do you tend to feel crushed by even constructive criticism, seeing it as evidence of your “ineptness?&# Do you tend to chalk your accomplishments up to being a “fluke,&# “no big deal” or the fact that people just “like&# you?
