When you are at the top, you can be either a boss or a leader. Sounds similar but very different in action. This is why.
-
-
The difference between a boss and a leader.
-
-
A boss is impersonal, a leader is compassionate.
-
-
A boss only says “I”, a leader always says “we”.
-
-
A boss just use people, a leader also develops people.
-
-
A boss makes you fearful, a leader makes you respectful.
-
-
A boss takes all the credits, a leader gives credits generously.
-
-
Bosses micromanage the works because they don’t trust you, leaders delegate the work because they trust you.
-
-
A boss tell you to go, a leader will go together with you.
-
-
A boss only thinks for short term, a leader thinks for a long term.
-
-
A boss is your “boss”, a leader is also your “colleague”.
-
-
A boss only thinks about the process, a leader also thinks about people.
So if right now you are at the top already, please do me a favor: don’t be a boss, but be a leader.
Spread love, not hatred…
