If I was put in the position of running the department / organization………!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I was put in the position of running the department / organization, I wanted my staff to tell me how we could be the best. It’s not often that an idea is perfect from the start. Getting others involved is how you make something great. See things from all angles.
I will always hire people who are smarter than me. They bring something to the staff that no one else does, so why wouldn’t I listen to them? Some people can feel threatened by staff members who might take the spotlight from them, but that’s what I wanted. I will give my staff chances to shine. Put them in charge of projects I knew they would do well with and let them present their ideas whenever possible.
My job as a boss is to get my staff to their next positions by preparing them in their current ones. What people don’t always realize is these staff members are doing the same thing for their bosses. I create relationships where I have the ability to be honest because that’s what I want in return. When working with people above you, be respectful and know your moments. Become allies so you have relationships that last a lifetime. What you’ll have then is friendships
