JobsA LEADER OBSESSED WITH FEEDBACK. Our boss has just returned from a management course, and he's become obsessive about asking us how we're doing, offering us appraisals, banging on about EQ and insisting on weekly group discussions to tell both him and each other how we're all feeling.
I'M IN A DOWNWARD SPIRAL. For some time my boss has been trying to take away half my project responsibilities without consultation. He built a case of 'lacking necessary competence' as a justification for the role change and embarrassed me in front of my management team.
I was up for a promotion recently, but in the end the job went to an external candidate. I was fed up not to be chosen and I now feel very disappointed - I'm sure I could do the job just as well as the guy who got it, probably better.
MY CHAIRMAN IS A BACK-SEAT DRIVER. I was recently taken on as manager for a small company. The chairman, despite deciding to take a back-seat role in the business, constantly interferes and goes over my head with clients.
Our MD has suffered the bereavement of a fairly distant relative It's turned him into a monster to work for - he bullies staff, and walked out during a private chat I'd set up with him.
FIRST CLASS COACH - I look at the conventional role models for leaders and realise I'm not like that and never will be.
MY PARTNER WANTS TO BRING HIS BROTHER ON BOARD. My business partner of nine years wants to make his brother a third partner in our company. I'm opposed - his brother is suggesting radical changes to the company and wants an unlimited expense account for 'executive trips'.
I'M DREADING MY CHARITY DAY IN THE STOCKS. Our company is sponsoring some stalls at a charity fete for our local hospital. We're all helping out on the day, and my boss has nominated me to spend the afternoon in the stocks, having rotten fruit thrown at me.
I'M BACK IN BLIGHTY AND FINDING MY JOB DULL. I've just come back to work after six months opening a new office abroad. The work was exhilarating and I picked up a host of new skills.
MY PROMOTION TURNED OUT TO BE FALSE. I recently accepted an offer to take over my former boss's job, without written agreement. But the job no longer exists, thanks to a major company restructuring.
