1. They don't keep an air of uncertainty on purpose most of the time, generally it's because a lot of businesses are uncertain and a lot of the time product/project managers don't have a good idea of what's going on!
2. Again this could be incompetence rather than cunning
3. Most great bosses and a lot of rubbish ones aren't great with positive feedback. Have you read Steve Job's biographies or Shoe Dog? Not much praise there. One guy I really respected once told me I wasn't a great programmer, but I got the job done and that was probably the nicest thing he said about anyone...I was pretty happy with that!
I agree with all of your points, but maybe not your reasoning behind them.
- nautilus12 6y agoNo I actually agree with you on all these points, Hanlon's razor applies to all of these which is why I made the last statement. However, I DO think there are managers and I've certainly run across them, that deliberately push on all these natural stressors to try to juice productivity.
- thorin 6y agoYeah, I had one of those, he was either a dick or a megalomaniac. Fortunately he emigrated so I'm unlikely to see him again!
- kulig 6y agoAre you implying steve jobs was a great boss? He was an insane narcissist.
