Is your manager someone who's only focused on goals or is he a dominating kind of person?
Is your manager someone who's only focused on goals or is he a dominating kind of person? Managers come in different types with varying degrees of effectiveness. Here is a look at seven common kinds of managers we come across in our prfoessional life:u00a0
The No Problem guyu00a0
This type of manager is someone who's totally task-driven and focused on achieving goals. They lead best in a chaotic kind of work environment. However, the irony is that they themselves create most of the problems they try to avoid. They also run the risk of burn out as their mind is driven towards providing solutions for problems.u00a0u00a0
The Big Bossu00a0
Your boss is a pitchfork manager if he is a dominating and autocratic kind of person. This manager forces his team to work hard by demanding progress, accountability, prodding for results by threats and stong arm tactics. This style of management can be painful for a team as they pushed to avoid consequences rather than motivated to fulfill a collective goal.u00a0
Mr Free handu00a0u00a0
If your boss is a easy person to deal with, chances are that he doesn't follow a particular style of management. These bosses often generate inconsistent results, and find themselves in awkward situations.u00a0 They are high on excitement and are poor listeners. They make their suboridnates feel overtly comfortable, which can lead to inconsistent results.u00a0
I, Me and Myselfu00a0
If your manager focuses more on himself than anything else, then he is a presumptuous guy. For him, his personal work, productivity, recognition and bonus takes precedence over his team's success or goal achievement. They put themselves before their team. More often than not, they are assertive and confident individuals. But they have a big ego and wants to look superior than the team at any costs. These kind of bosses experience the maximum management problems.u00a0u00a0
The Perfectionistu00a0
Well, if your boss is a perfect manager, he is open to change, innovation, training, and personal growth with a strong commitment to improve at every stage.u00a0 However, they don't produce consistent results. The reason lies in their lack of soft skills. Perfectionist managers are more obsessed with facts, figures, features and benefits rather than listening, questioning and prospecting. They tend to rely more on their knowledge than workforce.u00a0
Happy go lucky guy
Passive managers or pleasing managers take the concept of developing close relationships with coworkers to a new level. Keeping people happy is their number one objective. While it's a admirable trait,it can hinder leadership efforts if not managed effectively. This type of boss c an be viewd as incompetent, inconsistent and clueless. Such managers will do anything to avoid confrontation and conflicts at the workplace.
The proactive boss
This guy has all the pluses mentioned above in the different kinds of manager but none of their weaknesses. He can command authority, get work done and achieve personal growth at the same level. A proactive boss has the persistence of the Big Boss, the confidence of a self-obsessed manager, a drive to solve problems and a desire to serve with total integrity. He is the best manager you can ask for.
