You've crystallized exactly what my thoughts werte concerning..."feel good management".
New Orleans and Louisianna are full of it...look where it got them when the storms struck!
Thank you!
Unfortunately, lots of people on this thread seem to think the most paramount thing in the workplace is to be "treated nicely." When you point that out, they immediately leap to the conclusion that you are in favor of "abusive" bosses!
A majority of leaders with passion, vision and fire in the belly (to name just three cliches) are very often major pains in the ass. Deal with it. Further, I think every person should have at least one "unforgettable" boss, if only to have someone to compare all the rest of them to.
