The Two-minute Boss

As men, we are constantly growing into the roles of leadership in family, church, community, and government. Have you paid the cost to be the boss? What type of boss do you like? What kinds of boss drives you insane? Our leadership style is often predicated on the leaders that we've served up under, but nevertheless, you will have to deal with MANY styles (or bosses).

I will be doing a series on the different types of bosses that you will encounter. As you read about the various styles, see where you fit in or inspire too! It doesn't matter if you're a CEO or a father; you are the BOSS of someone.

The two-minute boss is a cross between a god boss and a world-on-his-shoulders boss. He impulsively demands control over situations (“What have you done when I was on vacation?”) and then cuts off your answer two minutes in because he doesn’t have time to discuss it. He frequently, yet randomly, asks you to write reports on your progress, but will rarely remember that he’s asked. The two-minute boss constantly gives the impression that he is way too busy to bother with details. His head is always somewhere else – somewhere more important. Working for this boss is an exercise in the art of speaking concisely. Try to fit everything you have to say in a two-minute timeframe, and see what happens.
