Leaders under pressure must put people first, ensuring that everyone in the company is clear on their role and purpose, and is working together to achieve the business goals.
A survey in the US by administrative staffing firm Office Team in June this year found that nearly half of all employees say they have a bad boss. Some 55 percent of those said they dealt with it by trying to improve the situation or just suffering through, with 38 percent saying they left the company either immediately or as soon as they had lined up a new job.
