The vast majority of managers are who are also supervisors and subordinates two roles to them, there are two critical decision making: what should I do? I should do my boss how subordinates?
Do you want to determine how the boss, you need to know how the subordinate. Generally, employees can be divided into four kinds: first, love the boss's critics, and second, does not love the boss's critics, and love the boss's not critics, fourth, do not love the boss's not critics.
The second subsidiary is to oppose against, no matter what you do, he will oppose, but no constructive opinions. The third type of subordinate to the contrary, is to support and support, no matter what you do, he would not oppose it. In the Organization, we adopted the common to the second subsidiary, they often will soon be boss fired away. But the third subsidiary may be many, because they tend to be recovered boss likes.
IBM's founder old Watson under the name Nicole Manager, is a third type of subordinates. Old Watson's son had small Watson describe Nicole: "if my father said to repair a tower to the Moon, he says that he went to ordering steel in the afternoon. "Nicole later became Vice President, IBM was even dedicated a song to him.
The first subsidiary in spite of the most valuable, but the organization is rare, because often mistaken for a second subsidiary, have been left out, marginalization, were dismissed. And third reports tend to be promoted, be praised, is reused, so in General in the Organization, is the third subsidiary in surplus, but the lack of a subordinate.
Manager to do this kind of boss: protect, encourage the first subsidiary, vigilance, away from the second and third reports. If the Organization was first subordinates, this organization is not healthy, its development are limited.
So, managers to do how to subordinates, first?. How to be your own boss, to select what subordinates to do. Former Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev in subordinates, to know the truth.
This story is leadership guru Bennis talking. Khrushchev visited the United States, Washington, d.c., National Press Club speech. There was a problem of translation: "today you talk to your former Stalin's evil rule. You were his close associates and colleagues. You were doing? " Khrushchev blushed blustered: "who ask this question?" 500 audience. He again asked: "who ask this question?" The House remained silent. Khrushchev said: "this is what I was doing. ”
Supervisors also have four types: a, love their listener, second, do not love the staff of the listener, III, love employees not the listener, not love, does not listen to employees. Khrushchev was chosen as the fourth subordinates, because Stalin is the fourth boss.
The first boss is the ideal leadership, is also the only one of the four boss can identify four types of subordinates and to recognize the first subsidiary. The second type of boss is a pragmatist, if your criticism can be beneficial for him, he is also willing to adopt. You will be rewarded, but might also not be punished.
Three and four supervisors are deaf criticism, the difference is the third boss not punish critics, while the fourth boss. In the Organization, the most common is the third and fourth boss.
Managers face first boss, you can do the first subordinate. In the face of the second kind of boss, you can choose to do any kind of subordinates, of course, the most secure choice or third. In the face of the third kind of boss (old Watson), select the first three subordinate (Nicola). In the face of the fourth boss (Stalin), the first four subordinate (Khrushchev).
Apparently, unless you encounter the first superiors, subordinates the best choice is not criticism. No wonder this nice discovery: "most organizations of a tragedy that people even know leadership is wrong, would sit. ”【oxford.】
