World of Organization - Boss are all bad?

"Organization", based on my understanding is a structure that enabling one man stepping on hundreds or thousands of others head.. Not a good nor bad issue to discuss here.. but its a system to magnify the man power in order to complete something huge or achieve some mission..therefore, the man step on the top is the manager...while those working under his command with wages are employees...

A study surveyed over a million employees and 80,000 managers which had conducted by Gallup Organization for 25 years, was published in a book called First, Break All the Rules: What the World's Greatest Managers Do Differently... an interesting book with surprising finding...


Says to a company...
If you are losing good people, look to their immediate boss. Immediate boss is the reason people stay and thrive in an organization. And he is also the reason why people leave. When people leave they take knowledge, experience and contacts with them, straight to the competition.

"People leave managers not companies"

HR experts say that of all the abuses, employees find humiliation the most intolerable. The first time, an employee may not leave, but a thought has been planted. The second time that thought gets strengthened. The third time, he looks for another job. When people cannot retort openly in anger, they do so by passive aggression. By digging their heels in and slowing down. By doing only what they are told to do and no more. By omitting to give the boss crucial information.

"If you work for a jerk, you basically want to get him into trouble. You don 't have your heart and soul in the job."

Different managers can stress out employees in different ways - by being too controlling, too suspicious, too pushy, too critical, but they forget that workers are not fixed assets, they are free agents.

Yet, unsatisfied employee would wonder how "the boss" can be the boss?? why the company or the organization appoint he or she as "the boss"? Yes, this is how the "Organization" system works, the top can never hear from the most bottom, because there are so many filters blocking at the middle..and in fact the organization has purposely set up these filter.. there are never such a reason that manager be fired because employees are not satisfy with his way of treating the staffs...

"Talented men leave. Dead wood doesn't"

So, if you are consider yourself a talent, choose for better employer OR stay to learn how to kiss the ass of the boss and be patient.. waiting for an opportunity to rule the organization yourself..

Good luck.
