Researchers reported in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences journal that higher-status workers have a greater feeling of control in their lives A recent study by Harvard and Stanford researchers found that higher-level leaders experienced less stress than people in lower- level posts What makes a boss "good"? According to a 2012 study by the National Bureau of Economic Research, a good manager aids worker productivity mainly by teaching employees concrete skills and better working methods +i Teaching accounted for about 2/3 of a boss' impact on worker productivity Replacing a poorly performing boss with a first-rate middle manager was nearly as productive as adding an extra person to the team Another study found that output increased when the best workers were assigned to the best managers The bottom line... Bad bosses Result in less productive workers Good bosses Can help boost employee output and morale SOURCES Created for WorldWidelaam.com DuinStreet, Inc., 2013 Dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2032912/One-25-bosses-psychopath-hides-charm-business-speak.html Eadio comlal ni eoress2012mBetrees-arwerk-ie-bunk-for-business/ WorldWideLearn Incepenoent.co.uKmewa/wor/a-goo0-008s-15-8-good-toacher-c12805.mm Jobs.aol.com/articles/2012/08/26/ceos-arent-as-stressed-as-youd-think-study-says/ Jobs.aol.com/articles/2012/02/2a/bad-bosses-often-source-of-unhappy-unhealthy-workers-study-in/ Marketwatch.com/story/two-thirds-america-unhappy-at-job-65-choase-new-boss-over-raise-says-study-by-tellyourbosscom-2012-10-16 Money.cnn.com/2012/04/15/news/Bconomy/cso-payindex htm Theatantic.com/meaitivarcha/2012/02/the-impact-of-bad-bosses/253423/ Theatlantic.com/business/archive/2012/08/study-your-bass-really-is-mare-productive-than-you-sorry/261334/ Washingtorpost.com/hilogs/post-leadership/post/orany-data-paint-of-the day-how-much-oceo-vaworker pay has grown/2012/05/11/gl0A-UISIU_blog.html
