Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from John Grubbs
Is my boss an idiot? Can I really know for sure? Following are some clues that you may have an idiot for a boss: 1) The best and talented people on your team leave and the dead weight remains. Idiots feel safety in numbers. 2) Communication is limited to the things that go wrong while the success of your team goes ignored. Idiots avoid positive affirmation and success like superman’s kryptonite. 3) Training and development are quickly cut from the budget. After all, if we are going to do less with more, training is an optional luxury and not a necessity. 4) Fun is surgically removed from the organization. In tough times, there are many “neutered” teams attempting to be successful in a stressful economy. 5) Leadership stifles good morale. How can a team with good morale be more productive? Bonus Clue: 6) Necessary resources are scarce. When times are tough, idiots make it harder for our people to perform daily functions with necessary tools and equipment.
