Simply put, bosses usually have this wrong impression to employees, and that’s not good for the atmosphere of your work. When you become a leader of your business instead of a boss, you will have more loyal employees, because they know that you appreciate them. People love being recognized, and once they are appreciated, they will appreciate you back by putting their hearts and minds into their jobs.
With that being said, you should try being a leader who understands their team rather than being a demanding, individualistic boss, if you want to build a harmonious and enjoyable working place.
