The three major misconceptions about leadership
Recently, a fan shared his story. He said that the leader usually relies on himself very much, and he is assigned to do a lot of work. Because he is a leader, he always responds to requests. It is precisely because of this that his workload has increased greatly. The pressure is getting heavier and heavier. Once, because the leader asked him to do too much work, and one of the unimportant things was not completed, the leader kicked him severely during the meeting. It was baffled at the time. He has always felt that he is the leader's confidant. He didn't expect the leader to be so ruthless this time. He usually treats the leader as a brother. This time it really broke his heart. He thought of resigning, a little Frustrated.
The three major misconceptions about leadership
I believe many people have experienced the story of this fan. They regard their leaders as friends and buddies in the workplace. However, when the leaders treat themselves ruthlessly, they feel unacceptable. This is actually a lack of understanding of the leaders. It is precisely because of these wrong views that you have a bad relationship with your leaders.
- Leaders are good people/bad people
Anyone who thinks that leaders are good people or leaders are bad people, if you also have such thoughts, then it shows that your understanding of leaders is also wrong. First of all, simply think that the leader is a good person or a bad person. This is to look at the leader emotionally, and you can’t say good or bad for the leader, because the leader also has his own interests in the workplace. When his interests conflict with yours Of course, he will choose to protect his own interests.
- If you make me uncomfortable, I will quit
Many people think that your leader is so arrogant. If you make me uncomfortable, I will not do it, and I will not serve you. You think there are many opportunities, and the big deal is to change companies. If you think so, then you are wrong. If the next company arrives like this, what will you do? Continue to leave? The time in the workplace is very limited. When you reach the age of 30, you will not be promoted, and you will not have the opportunity to be promoted in the future. Normally, if a person graduates from college at the age of 21 or 2, the workplace only gives you 8 years. In these 8 years, it will take you 3 years to master basic workplace skills, so you can really lay the foundation for the future only in these 5 years.
- Just do a good job, no need to maintain the relationship with the leader
Many people think that no matter how amazing your leader is, I don’t want to flatter you. I just need to do my job well and build a relationship with the leader. I can’t do that kind of thing, and that’s a shameful act of flattering. There are many people who think this way. Many people feel that they are fine and don’t want to see leaders. When they see leaders, they feel restrained and not free. If you don't maintain the relationship with the leader, and the leader is not familiar with you, how can he use you, and how can he give you opportunities? If you're a leader, do you trust people you know well, or people you don't?
Therefore, the above three misunderstandings in the workplace have caused many people to be unable to maintain a good relationship with their leaders, which makes it difficult for you to mix well in the workplace.
