How 'Bad Bosses' Drive Employees Mad [Infographic]

The most productive workers are often thought of as those who love their work. But even the best of workers can be hampered by poor leadership.

Further evidence of that is contained in new research which shows that leaders who lack empathy demonstrate poor leadership skills, and a significant number of them are ineffective as managers. Moreover, a report released this week by talent-management company DDI shows that many managers frequently fail to ask workers for their ideas and input, are poor communicators and don't provide sufficient feedback on employee performance.
