The Lonely Boss.

There’s another reason why being a boss is so hard and lonely.

As a worker there is no shortage of feedback - at the very least your boss is formally telling you how you’re going once a year.

As a boss - nothing.

Or at least nothing beyond sycophancy and the tedious shaking hands and kissing babies performances.

The best the boss gets is an underperforming worker. They’re left to mind-reading and minefield navigation to work out whether it’s them or us.

Assuming the boss is the kind that considers it’s even possible it may be ‘them’.
