Is having good leadership in your co important?
-
Does it matter to you that your company has a good leader, ie. the CEO?
Or just doing your own work and collect salary at month-end is all that matters?
Does it affect your morale to work if you CEO is a lousy leader and can't make good decisions? -
as long as i can collect my salary at month end is good lo.... if i can continue do tat means the ceo didnt messed up....Originally posted by Wanda:Does it matter to you that your company has a good leader, ie. the CEO?

good leadership is very very important. a good superior must be one who is on-the-ball, garang, dedicated when it comes to work at the same time giving welfare to his staffs.

Where to find this type of leader?Originally posted by Gordonator:good leadership is very very important. a good superior must be one who is on-the-ball, garang, dedicated when it comes to work at the same time giving welfare to his staffs.
I believe good leadership is important. I mean for a start, the chief must know which direction he is going, otherwise, everything goes downhill.

Of course lah.....
No good leaders, how can the company continue to secure business?
No business, how can company survive?
Company no survive, how to get monthly salary still? -
By good leader, I mean someone who not only knows which direction to take the co, but must make the right decisions for the good of the company and staff, instead of for his own personal glory or to raise his own profile (for example).
Sadly, I find there are many of such "leaders" around. So when I hear them tell the staff to economise, make sacrifice for the sake of the co, blah, blah, blah, I find it's all crap. -
have. i used to have this female boss who is very dedicated to her work at the same time very good to her staffs. she thinks in our shoes and fight for our welfare with the management.Originally posted by Wanda:Where to find this type of leader?

Sounds familiar. Used to have a lady project manager in my ex-ex company, will buy snacks for us, play dai dee with us sometimes when we work late. Invite us over to her condo for badminton or bbq. One day, she was asked to leave and pack up within a day, and eventually left while we're still getting over our shock. Eventually her place was taken over by an ang moh guy that does nothing more than "hi and bye" to us everyday.Originally posted by Gordonator:have. i used to have this female boss who is very dedicated to her work at the same time very good to her staffs. she thinks in our shoes and fight for our welfare with the management.

My ex company, got an ang moh female line producer that'll complain anyone up the line, if you're a wee bit late for work. It doesn't matter if you worked till 11pm last night, she doesn't care anymore than morning attendance. Other ang moh's holding supervisory and managerial positions, I look them no up as well. There is nothing I can learn from them. Yes ang moh can socialize very well, ready punchlines for all occasions, but when it comes to work, its nothing about skin color. They can be equally bad, sloppy, unresponsive, unproductive as well. -
sometimes top management don't like managers like in your case and my case, to be too close to their men.Originally posted by SajNT:Sounds familiar.

my female boss was robbed off her position and have no choice but to leave the company. sad. -

Currently my newly promoted boss' boss is exactly like that.. Gungho, stay back later than anyone else, close to those below him, buys food for those staying back, very friendly with everyone else and energetic.
I wonder how long he will stay at the top?

Depend on how he carry balls of those at top.

very much.. it is evident in how the people in the rank and file work too..
we've had a few no.1s throughout the years...
when i entered my organisation, we had a new no.1.. he wasn't much good, pretty lecherous, very intent on showy things, not interested in core duties, probably trying to pad his CV, loud, boorish..
the people were pretty much demoralised and just went through the motions.. people who pointed out his mistakes were usually belittled by him pulling his rank on them.. so no one really cared after a while..
then he left and quickly disappeared into the woodwork... and even more quickly disgraced himself
another one came in to clean up his mess.. it was short-lived as i guess that was his duty.. to clean up the mess...
people were pretty happy and morale kinda went from the dumps to indifferent.. so it was an improvement of sorts...
then there was a merger and some non-descript person came to be no.1.. and it showed...
the whole organisation became non-descript.. and overlooked most of the time...
the current one is a formidable man.. one whose presence actually commanded respect.. he was the organisation no.2 before and went elsewhere for a while, then came back as our no.1..
now, morale has lifted a lot and we are starting to believe in ourselves again..
that being said, the various departments in our organisation are in need of proper leadership.. most of the department bosses are self-serving asswipes who stepped on others to get there and are very happy to stick one in anyone for no reason at all and if it gives them an advantage, all the better...
so, most of the rank and file are praying those asswipes get wiped out by trucks but are optimistic enough to look forward to regular reshuffles where the better bosses come to their departments..
yes.. having good leadership is important -
my female manager was going to give birth to her 1st baby. so the management find another staff to cover her while she goes on maternity leave.Originally posted by Wanda:What do you mean by "robbed off her position"?
but when she comes back 3 months later she was shocked that the covering manager has officially taken over her position as approved by the management.
my female boss was forced to say bye bye to her position which she loves very much and forced to do something else. she resigned shortly.
the management is very evil. they purposely use the period whereby she went on maternity leave to find someone to replace her cos from what i heard, the management don't like her, not because she is incapable, she is very capable and the best superior in the company. but the management don't like her fighting for too much welfare for the staff and wants to kick her off her position.
she have no choice but to leave...
she wasn't fired. she resigned. she was robbed of her position and forced to do something else.Originally posted by choco B:Why were they fired? -
It's sad that till today, this so-called developed c'try still have no basic laws to protect the manager as mentioned in the above post.
But if it's a union member, the mgt will have hell to pay.
