What the blogoshpere’s saying about bosses this week…
EBosswatch.com - EBosswatch’s mentality is “nobody should have to work with a jerk.” We agree. Their premise is simple. If you’re thinking about making a career change, check with them to see what employees are saying about your potential new boss. Got a legitimate beef about your current boss? You can also rate your boss anonymously at the site.
Employee Justice Report - Provides a platform for employees to voice concerns about working conditions and unfair labor practices. Great resources and links to the EEOC and OSHA.
Toxic Boss - Calls toxic bosses to the mat. Names names and includes pics (although I haven’t figured out if all the pictures are real yet.) God help you if they think you’re a toxic boss. They don’t mince words.
3 Tips to defuse a problem boss - One tip, picture your boss as a TV character. Fred Flintstone immediately came to mind, and once I stopped laughing, it actually helped. Other helpful tips are also included in this interesting Ezine article.
Manage your boss like a bar fight – Yup. The guys over at Bright Tree Consulting say you should never give your boss room to swing. They might be on to something. Thoughts?
