The Nine Core Beliefs Of Truly Horrible Bosses

Have you ever worked for a THB? A Truly Horrible Boss? I have.

You know the type: arrogant, narcissistic, short sighted, ready to kill everyone in sight as long as they survive.

Well now, thanks to INC., there's a list of their common traits. I won't go through the list here, but I will tell you which behavior I think is the most egregious and telling trait of the THB.

Number 6. I own the success and you own the failure. Horrible bosses take the credit when things go well and point the finger when things go poorly.

Smart bosses know that their real job is to 1) fix the failures before they happen and 2) publicize the wins that employees achieve.
