I, Vicente E. Garcia, who worked for companies like SAP and HP, think that there are a lot of reasons why employees leave a company. Some leave because they wanted to explore jobs abroad while others leave to seek for a higher salary. The question we have now is…how can a company keep the good employees stay? Well, there’s something that we can work with- the attitude of the managers.
If you happen to have managers that possess these 10 things that bad managers do, you might want to consider talking to them and do some coaching. Keep in mind that it is always better to coach bad managers than let them ruin the lives of other employees.
1. Bad managers blame others- there may be problems being encountered that were quite hard to handle, but if he is a good boss, he won’t point the blame to any of his subordinates. Instead of doing so, he will gather facts on the root cause of the problem and solve it with the team.
2. Bad managers shout and yell- a good manager should always keep his composure. Some managers, instead of being calm, were the first to raise a voice when things don’t go their way or when their instructions were not followed correctly.
