Boss ohh......BOSS!


In a recent spate of problems shrouding a municipality, we need to re-check the position of the boss of the organization.
As a boss, you are the head of an organization. You have the power and the position to make decisions that will make or break the organization. And because you have that power, it comes with great responsibility. You shoulder the burden of being accountable of anything your subordinates do. Not only that, you have to be aware of everything that your employees do or don’t do. Even though you have departments who run their designated operations, you have a duty to monitor not one, but all of them. You shouldn’t expect everything to be at your fingertips delivered by the mole every morning; instead you should go to the ground and get the hidden information yourself.
There is no reason why a boss doesn’t know the dealings of the subordinates with a third party which concerns the organization. In the corporate world, this could be defined as a breach of trust and when the employee is caught, he would be terminated. There is no such thing as leniency as to just suspend or transfer him to another department. Once this issue is raised, the employee’s loyalty is in question. There should be no difference between a corporate organization and a government. Transparency is paramount and it is the essence of a successful corporation. Bosses have to be tough on this. Bosses should emulate the leadership skills of Donald Trump and others great leaders. Trump has no hesitations in making the final say to everything he does. He is definite and he knows everything that happens in every property and businesses he owns. In a government body, you are too hired and paid accordingly. You have a job to do and you should do it to the best of your abilities. If you are innocent in any allegedly dubious activities, defend yourself outright with proof. Do not keep quiet as this is a window of opportunity for your opponents to spark your downfall. A good boss is a verbal and action oriented intellectual, not a quiet person who waits for things to fall into his lap and pass by. So, to every boss out there, be the boss you are supposed to be and not a dumb ass.GOT IT!
