The Neon Sign Over Your Head Says 'Boss'

摘要

Several years ago, I was asked by a friend of mine to sit in on a meeting he was leading and give him some feedback on how the meeting went. He was a good leader and had the respect of all of his employees, but he wanted an objective viewpoint on how his direct reports responded to him. As the meeting progressed, I began to notice that nearly every idea that my friend brought up was met with responses like "That's a great idea," "I wish I had thought of that," and "You always have the answers."
