Should You Quit Your Boss? | Hire Top Talent | Scoop.it

"Are you working for a dysfunctional boss? Life is way too short to put up with an incompetent, toxic, and ineffective boss!"

Barry Deutsch's insight:

The primary reason most people quit their jobs is due to a lack of opportunity = learning, impact, and becoming. The second most common reason is you lose respect for your immediate boss - mercurial, unfair, arbitrary, poor manager and leader, doesn't develop you. Why put up with a dysfunctional boss when there are so many great opportunities waiting for you?
