Day Five - Being the Boss

I haven't been a boss for long but I've been thinking about what makes a good boss for years.  The difference to me is that some people think that being a boss means people work for you...and some think being a boss means you work for them.  My staff are superstars.  They know the answers to almost all the questions and the ones they don't know that know how to go and find them.  I could never do my job without these amazing people and that means I have to work to be their champion, earn their respect and keep them happy.  One of them brought me flowers today so it is the perfect chance to acknowledge how much I love my team and how grateful I am for the privilege to be their boss and work for them.
