Presence or Observer.

There are times for the boss to be an observer.

There are more times for the boss to be a presence.

There are few times we want to be observed.

There are more times we need a presence.

An observer boss is detached. A judge. Or at best - a neutral onlooker.

A presence boss accompanies me. Is in relationship with me. Moves in sync with me.

A presence boss knows I’m an adult. Is not dependent on me, nor I on them.

Presence bosses are rare.
