There is a leader in our company, his ability has been questioned by employees, and colleagues secretly call him an "imbecile leader" behind his back, but he doesn't care and still goes his own way.
This leader is very fond of pointing fingers at employees, but never giving specific guidance, once a colleague Xiao Zhang is trying a new way of working, the leader not only did not encourage Xiao Zhang, but loudly reprimanded: "How can you do this? Do as I say! As a result, Zhang's new approach failed because it was not supported. Not only that, but this leader often boasts about his "great achievements" at meetings, but these so-called "achievements" are often trivial things, or the results of other teams, but he attributes them to himself, which makes people feel very speechless. Also, this leader also turned a blind eye to the suggestions of employees, thinking that his own ideas were the most correct, once his colleague Xiao Wang put forward a proposal to improve the work process, but Li Hua said disdainfully: "What do you know? Just do what I say! As a result, the company's work efficiency has not been improved because Xiao Wang's suggestion has not been adopted. In addition, this leader often creates conflicts and sow discord in the team, and he always deliberately speaks ill of others in front of some employees, causing the relationship between team members to become very strained. What's worse is that this leader is always overly critical of the work results of his subordinates, but never gives positive feedback, and his colleagues have put in a lot of effort, but they have not received due recognition and encouragement, and their work enthusiasm has been greatly hit.
However, one day the company came to a new general manager, this general manager is very capable and far-sighted, he soon discovered the problem of leadership, in an important project, the general manager deliberately put the leader in charge of a key link, as expected, the incompetence and stupidity of the leader led to serious delays in the project. At the project summary meeting, the general manager unceremoniously pointed out the problems of the leader and severely criticized him, which made the leader feel very ashamed and embarrassed, and he began to reflect on his behavior. Since then, the leader has gradually changed his way of working, he has begun to listen to the suggestions of his employees, give them full autonomy and support, and he no longer blames employees at will, but strives to build a good relationship with them. 01.The more incompetent the leader, the more he likes to do these 8 stupid things! 1.Pointing fingers without giving specific guidance: Some leaders dictate how employees work without providing clear direction and advice. For example, when an employee is preparing an important report, the leader only says "this can't be done", but does not tell the employee that the specific needs to be improved and how to improve, resulting in employees being at a loss.
2.Boasting about showing off: In meetings, some leaders always boast about themselves, exaggerate their accomplishments, and downplay the team's efforts, which not only makes team members feel unvalued, but can also lead to low team morale. 3.Treat employee suggestions as if they were nothing: When employees put forward constructive suggestions, some leaders ignored them and insisted on their own opinions. For example, an employee suggests a new workflow to improve efficiency, but the leader rejects the suggestion as a challenge to his authority. 4.Create contradictions in the team: In order to show their control, some leaders deliberately create contradictions in the team and provoke the relationship between members, which makes team members suspicious of each other, and it becomes difficult to cooperate, affecting work efficiency. 5.Overly critical of work results: Some leaders are too critical and nitpicky about employees' work results, but do not give any positive feedback, which makes employees feel that their efforts are not recognized and their work motivation is hit. 6.Death to save face: In order to maintain their own image, some leaders are still stubborn and unwilling to admit mistakes when faced with wrong decisions, which can lead to difficulties in the project and unnecessary losses to the team. 7.Arbitrariness and disobedience: Some leaders make decisions without considering the opinions of team members and insist on going their own way, which can lead to a loss of engagement and job satisfaction.
8.Blame and blame subordinates: When there is a problem in the project, some leaders will not hesitate to push the responsibility to their subordinates without reflecting on their own management problems, which makes employees feel aggrieved and unfair, and also affects the cohesion of the team. These stupid things not only affect the efficiency and atmosphere of the team, but also make employees less motivated, so how do you avoid becoming such a leader? First of all, we must constantly improve our ability, maintain the state of learning, and keep up with the pace of the times; Secondly, we must learn to listen to and respect the opinions of employees and accept good opinions; Finally, we must be responsible, dare to admit mistakes, and correct them in time. 02.In the end, in the workplace, we will inevitably encounter all kinds of leaders, and a leader with low ability may bring a lot of trouble to our work, but we should not be negative because of this, but should learn from it. First of all, we must learn to maintain the ability to think independently, not blindly follow the opinions of the leader, when we have good ideas and suggestions, we must be brave to put forward, even if we are not recognized by the leader, do not be discouraged, maybe one day we will be recognized. Secondly, we must learn to establish good communication and cooperative relations with leaders and colleagues, stay calm in the face of criticism and accusations from leaders, analyze our own problems objectively, and constantly improve our abilities. Finally, we must understand that a person's ability can be improved through hard study and practice, and we cannot deny ourselves because we have encountered a leader with low ability, but we should take him as a lesson and strive to improve our ability and become a better person.
