What the blogosphere’s saying about bosses this week…
- Yahoo’s Shine – Marci Alboher reviews the book Working for You Isn’t Working for Me, and has a Q&A session with the authors, Katherine Crowler and Kathi Elster. One of the great p
oints Crowler and Elster make is that while we can’t change our bosses, we can certainly change how we react to them. - Washington Post – Leadership consultant John Baldoni thinks there’s an upside to having a bad boss. After trembling at the mere thought, I read his article and realized he’d made some good points, the primary one being, “Leaders are those that make good organizations good — whether or not they have a bad boss.”
- Xconomy Boston – Robert Buderi talks to members of Boston’s Innovation Community about their own bad boss experiences. Buderi makes a great observation – many entrepreneurs have had really bad bosses. Maybe we should be grateful to them. Ok, that may be pushing it.
- NY Mag – A couple of weeks ago I had a field day with David Letterman’s “creepy” office sexploits. This week a former writer speaks out about the hostile work environment she says led her to give up her “dream job.”
