A Good Boss

i am blessed to have a good boss who possesses the following characteristics,

1. Don't play politics.
2. Don't loss temper.
3. No frustrated emotion.
4. Eager to reach out to subordinates for assistance, especially at critical moment.
5. Have ability and capacity to accomplish his/her roles.
6. Humble.

i have heard from my friend that his ex-boss was ridiculous, non-sense, unreasonable. Everyday this ex-boss opens its mouth to fire, to irritate people. i think it is very difficult to deal with such boss even in a few hours. The pressure accumulated under such boss is enormous.

i have also met some boss (not mine) are incapable, then his/her subordinates will learn nothing, or even worse is that the incapable guy may be jealous of subordinates and play politics, or tricks....

My department had encountered seversal periods of layoff (job discontinuation), at those moments, my boss helped seek vacancies voluntarily for the laid offs, and tried to raise the morale of those remained. Thanks God i still remain in the company.

A long time ago when i was green, i often find that my ex-department head did not have too much work to do such that he can leave earlier everyday. At that time sometimes i felt that i was also capable of doing his work by talking to, or meeting with someone. Later on i knew that i was wrong for i didn't know what he had done and understood that boss must have solid 'things', such as knowledge, mentality, talent, wise, experience, over subordinates to become boss.
