Workplace Vent Post
Let's dive into a workplace dilemma that's all too familiar: managers and bosses who avoid making decisions like it's an Olympic sport. It's one of those scenarios where nobody wants to be the "bad guy," and it can turn your professional life into a total crapfest.
Here's how it goes down: You're working hard on a project, and important decisions are needed to move forward. But your manager or boss, instead of taking charge, sidesteps the responsibility like a pro.
Yet, when things go swimmingly, they're front and center, basking in the glory, and taking all the credit, as if they orchestrated every success single-handedly.
But when the inevitable bumps in the road arise, suddenly they're nowhere to be found, disavowing any involvement with a classic, "I never approved this" or "I wasn't in the loop on that decision."
It's an infuriating cycle that can leave you feeling exasperated and undervalued. In reality, leadership means stepping up, making decisions, and owning both the victories and the setbacks.
So, if you find yourself dealing with an indecisive manager or boss, remember that true leadership requires accountability. Leaders don't just enjoy the triumphs; they stand by their teams through thick and thin
