Difference between good Leaders and Bad Leaders who Manage in an Organization

In this paper I decided to break down the difference between good leaders and bad leaders who manage in an organization. After The breakdown I’ll go into the proper tools to improve as a leader. I haven’t work in a lot of jobs but out of the few I have, I noticed the difference in leadership skills. I’ve observed top managers, middle managers, and team leads in different job settings. Although they all have different roles to play in an organization, they all are some type of leader. While majority of them did a good job getting their points across, managing team huddles for employers to be up to date on objectives and expression, and also their delivery in speech which helped us trust them, there are some who are not really being a good leader and cause uncomforting and untrusting feelings while working under them. Supervisory management goals should be to help employees most adequately fit with the needs of a company.

Good leadership requires treating employees with great respect and care. The better the respect and caring for the employee, the better the outcome. I believe you should treat employees as if they are very important and valuable and you will cause them to feel and become this way. They will then treat their work, customers, peers and management this way. It helps employees trust you which help them voluntarily follow your lead. I feel managers should be willing to coach people when necessary to raise them to a higher standard. I’ve witnessed good leaders at my job give great instructions and guidance and made employees feel comfortable enough to come to them for any type of question or concern. You should always be ready to provide direction when needed to ensure that everyone is on the same page. A good leader...

I don’t believe all bad bosses are necessarily bad people but I think they lack leadership skills that could help them and employees trust the situation or help productivity. Leadership in the workplace applies to managing people, not managing objects. Employees experience it through the support provided by management and the quality of this support dictates the quality of their work. The more knowledge of management, integrity, willingness to take initiative, positive attitude, creativity, teach ability, and good communication skills a supervisor, manager, or leader of any sort has, the better the work environment will be (Newstrom, pg.11). They’ll be appreciated and be noticed for being the great leader they’re capable of being.
