“Because
of the privilege and authority God has given me, I give each of you this
warning:
Don’t think you are better than you really are. Be honest in your evaluation
of yourselves,
measuring yourselves by the faith God has given us”.
Romans 12:3 (NLT)

From AZ Central.com comes this report:
Bosses
who yell,
threaten and micromanage their
way to the top, often at the expense of miserable underlings are all too common
in today’s workplaces.
But
the Tony Sopranos and Darth Vaders of popular culture are not the most effective
CEOs in the real world, according to a new study from the W.P. Carey School of
Business at Arizona State University.
The
best bosses are humble bosses, those who empower and appreciate their employees,
are open to feedback and care about the greater good, according to the research
published in Administrative Science Quarterly.
“Humility
is not weakness,” Angelo Kinicki, a professor of W.P. Carey School of Business
at Arizona State University, said Tuesday during a phone interview.
“Humility
has its effects across levels of an organization in an empowered, uplifting way.
You can’t browbeat people into performance.”
On
Monday’s blog I’ll list 13 things you can do if you have trouble with a
bully in the workplace.
