Oh No, They Didn’t!
The Devastating Effects of a Bad Boss
presented by Cecilia Gorman
Have you ever worked for a manager that was less-than-stellar? Managers who are ineffective -- no matter the reason why -- have a broad and powerful impact on those around them. In this session will discuss how managers can create unproductive work environments, erode employee morale, and hinder productivity – oftentimes without even knowing of their impact.
By understanding the potentially detrimental causes and effects of bad bosses, HR professionals can better support those managers and the teams they lead. The ultimate goal is to learn tactics to help managers develop into strong leaders and have a positive, contagious influence over their teams.
By the end of this talk, attendees will have a deeper appreciation of the impact of every single manager on team dynamics and overall business success. Attendees will acquire actionable skills and tools to share with their company managers to boost competency, confidence and overall leadership impact.
Key Takeaways:
- The First Domino: We'll start by outlining why managers are the critical initial influence upon every team member’s success.
- Stopping the Spread: A key part of this session will focus on reducing any negative impact from a less-then-equipped manager who may be inhibiting the success of their team. We’ll cover what “bad” bosses do and ways to mitigate those behaviors.
- Building Skills for Managers to Develop Strong Leadership: The most critical part of our talk will be dedicated to actionable strategies and skills that managers can develop to improve their impact on others.
