[LeadersWorkshop] HR Behaviors: 20 Bad Boss Behaviors that Drive You Bonkers

 

Everyone encounters "toxic" bosses, but in this economy, it's something people may just have to deal with. In their new book, Working for You Isn't Working for Me: The Ultimate Guide to Managing Your Boss (Portfolio, September 2009), authors Katherine Crowley (a psychotherapist) and Kathi Elster (a business strategist) help you detect bad behaviors and--luckily--tell you how to reclaim control of the relationship regardless of your rank. Here are the 20 behaviors; your boss may have one--or all.

1. Chronic Critic: finds fault with everything you do
2. Rule Changer: keeps changing and rearranging what he or she originally decided
3. Yeller: explodes without notice and says incriminating things about you
4. Underminer: will set you up to fail
5. "I'm Always Right": needs to be considered infallible
6. "You Threaten Me": takes credit when it's not due
7. Grandiose: can't see past his or her own ego
8. Control Freak: micromanages uncontrollably
9. Love-Struck: can't manage his or her own emotions
10. Calculating Confidante: has a hidden agenda
11. Tell-All: makes you his or her captive audience
12. Liar, Liar: can implicate you in his or her lies
13. Sacred Cow: not going anywhere; if you challenge you will lose
14. Checked Out: preoccupied with non-work-related matters
15. Spineless: incapable of defending anyone
16. Artful Dodger: afraid of tarnishing his or her perfect image
17. Junior: many not value your experience
18. Former Colleague: the balance of power has changed
19. Unconscious Discriminator: unintentionally expresses bias
20. Persecutor: targets and torments you
