The Best Bosses in the World Do These 10 Things
Feb 17, 2022

​Have you ever had a really good boss? Someone who always brought out the best in you, made you feel valued and inspired you to work harder than ever before? Then you’ll understand how much of a difference a good supervisor can make to your motivation and performance. So, when you want your team to perform well, it’s helpful to adopt the habits of the best bosses in the world. 

Check out these 10 behaviours of great bosses:


  1. They’re good communicators. Great bosses know how to listen to what their people are saying — and how to empathize with them. They also understand that the more transparent they are about what’s going on and why, the more likely their teams are to do their best.
  2. They empower their people. Instead of micromanaging their team members, good bosses provide them with the knowledge, tools and support they need to do their jobs well without constant scrutiny.
  3. They coach their people. As Inc. reports, the best bosses leverage problems as teaching opportunities. They help their teams resolve issues by sharing insights and providing guidance so their people can grow and gain more experience. 
  4. They hold themselves accountable. Great bosses know that the buck stops with them — and if something goes wrong, it’s because they didn’t correct it in time. So instead of blaming their teams, they take full responsibility.
  5. They’re open to trying new things. According to Business Insider, good bosses don’t just stick with things because it’s the way they’ve always been done. They’re always looking for the best way to do things — so they’re willing to give their people room to innovate and experiment. 
  6. They provide constructive feedback. The best bosses offer objective assessments of their team members’ performance and provide pointers on how to improve.
  7. They create a safe, inclusive work environment. They promote trust between team members so that everybody feels confident enough to ask questions and share new ideas. 
  8. They challenge their employees. Great bosses know that their people will only stay engaged and grow if they’re challenged in their jobs. That’s why they provide stretch assignments and opportunities for development.
  9. They lead by example. The best bosses don’t just talk the talk — they also walk the walk. They never ask something of their employees that they’re not willing to do themselves.
  10. They work on their own development. Good bosses know that they need to keep growing so they can keep supporting their team members. They acquire new skills and take on new challenges to build up their own knowledge and experience. 

If you learn these behaviours, you’ll soon be on your way to becoming a better boss. You’ll help your people gain confidence in their abilities and inspire them to bring their best to work — every day of the week.

You’ve seen these guys before when a circus came to your city or maybe on TV. They walk on a wire at an impressive height, sometimes without insurance, sometimes with a long stick that probes the void right and left. They walk slowly, trying the wire with their toes first, making small steps, their eyes fixed on the small platform where they plan to land soon. They never watch down. They don’t listen to an audience that applauses or gasps in awe. They are concentrated on keeping their balance. To keep balance. Let’s come down from the wire above the arena or stage. Let’s look closer at balance, where it has its roots and the secrets of keeping it. Is it an art? Or is it a skill? Can you learn to keep balance? Or is it an innate skill that only gymnasts, figure skaters, circus artists and ballet dancers are born with? Want to know the secrets of a ballerina that must perform 32 fouettes, a complex ballet movement that requires turning 360 degrees at a high-speed standing on the point of a ballet shoe? First, keeping balance is a skill people must learn for years. In ballet, sport, circus, real life, and… work life. A ballerina is taught to pick one point and to fix her eyes on it when she makes her 32 fouettes, a complex ballet movement that requires turning 360 degrees at high-speed standing on the point of a ballet shoe. She focuses on one thing that keeps her upright. She doesn’t look anywhere else. Gymnasts in some disciplines are constantly trained to feel the bar under their feet. They are prepared to land precisely on the bar after they jump, and the incredible contortions we admire in competitions. But let’s come back to the circus artists we have begun with. Often, they have a long stick in their hands to keep their balance. Is their secret hidden in the stick? And what is the secret? You don’t need to be a ballet dancer, a gymnast, or a circus artist to get the idea of balance. Here are your first two steps in your balance training: 1. Keep your main priorities in mind. And have a clear idea about what is very important for you and where you are ready to compromise. But don’t listen to external opinions that don’t align with your ideals. Forget about the audience’s applause – focus on you. 2. Use some help to stay upright and get to your goals. Imagine your life split on two ends of the helping stick, your job is on one end, and your private life is on another. How comfortable do you feel at your height now with the load on both ends? You need support. We at Kelly pay a lot of attention to balance. The balance between people’s private lives and their jobs. The balance between feeling appreciated and professional goals or between achieving extraordinary results and being inspired. Talk to Kelly today. We are not ballet coaches or sports trainers, but we know much about how important work/life balance is in our lives.

We often associate certain qualities with individuals who seem to possess a natural talent for creativity. We convince ourselves that painting, singing, or dancing are pursuits reserved for these "real" artists while we remain mere spectators. Creativity? Inspiration? No, it's not about me.
