Being a leader means more than telling people what to do or critiquing them — and yet for many employees who have a bad manager, that’s exactly what leadership can seem like. So, what actually makes someone a good boss?
According to business management consultant Perceptyx, employees are 2.5 times more likely to be fully engaged in their workplace if they are led by what they described as their “best managers” versus their “worst managers.” In fact, employees are 5.7 times more likely to say they belong in the organization if they are under good leadership.
