Bangalore: In your professional life, you might have gone through many difficult situations which include working with a bad boss too. Many of you may have even planned to quit your job as you are not able to bare your boss anymore. Before taking such a major step, keep in mind that, not all bosses are created equal; you cannot compare the behavior of your present boss with the previous boss as he is good and he was bad. This can be well understood by a person who ever had a bad boss.

We have discovered that good bosses listen well, empower their people, mentor, teach, coach, inspire innovation and creativity and have fun.  It is the flip side of these positive behaviors that we explored.  As they come, these negative bosses are both the ones to look out for and also to work with constructively.
As no one is truly perfect, we hope these insights will inform and enlighten you to explore the full productivity of your workplace and workmates.  
Here they are, five bad bosses:
1) The Talker – a boss that doesn’t give any space for their employees to speak or learn through conversation.  This boss is often thought of as a bigmouth, braggart, gossiper, and/or lecturer.  They talk and talk and talk and never listen.  They interrupt others and are overly self-involved with their thoughts and expressions.  The Talker only listens to themselves and disregards anything offered by their subordinates.  Resenting their employees’ input, they stifle creativity and productivity while cultivating widespread discontent amongst their team.  The Talker is a bad boss because they miss out on opportunities both on their own development and development of their employees.
