Employees often expect bosses to be kind, enthusiastic, selfless, and understanding people, like the bosses their colleagues have before themselves. Some people are lucky enough to have that type of manager, but most of the time people are stuck with a Donald Trump type who mostly deals with himself. These types of bosses are difficult to manage but have many skills and flaws that can be beneficial to employees. The benefits all depend on the type of boss they are, which can be identified by their management styles: there are the workaholics, the intimidators, and the best friend. The first type of boss is the workaholic, who practically lives at work. Barbara Killinger says it best: “Workaholics insist on their own way, they have to prove themselves right” and tell others what they should do or say. Their life goals and passions are all work-oriented and they love to be praised for all the work they do. These are Bill Lumberghs of Office Space, who expect everyone to work as these bosses rarely get the job done; they prefer to follow the pace desired by the staff. Their main priority is to have a stress-free work environment. They quickly make friends with their colleagues and have a very open private life. Whenever they are having a tough day, it always affects the rest of their colleagues until they too are having a terrible day. The employees of the best friend bosses are always looked down upon by the superiors of the company. Most employees take advantage of their boss's leniency to become unproductive in their work. The real benefit of the manager best friend is that hard-working employees more often stand out as more productive. Because these types of managers don't last very long in their positions, hard workers have a better chance of being able to advance to a more senior management position.
