In response to Bridget's Question

Have you ever had a job where communication was an issue?

My answer to this question is yes. At one of my jobs I actually have had an issue with my boss, along with many other employees. He lacks many communication skills which is why I think his employees have lost respect for him. When he feels something is going wrong he does not kindly approach you, but yells at you, rolls his eyes, or makes you feel like you are a complete idiot. He fails at listening to others because he usually thinks he is always right. By having this attitude, he does not understand or feel for his employees. It is important to listen to your employees and get their feedback in certain situations. Having a boss who is self centered and stubborn only ends up with employees who do not respect you. In the end, when your employees do not respect you, they are less likely to work hard for the company and fulfill their needs.
