More often than not we read about toxic workplaces where bosses micromanage, pressure and manipulate their employees. Where they don’t give them well deserved paid time off, or where they refuse a salary raise.

But the truth is, there are still many devoted and passionate bosses out there who are true leaders and stand for the people. And this post is a celebration of exactly that.

Below is a collection of pictures that show the moment people realized their boss is so much more than their formal superior. Scroll down, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your best boss stories in the comment below!

“A good boss today looks different than 50 years ago,” Christine Mitterbauer, a licensed and ICF-approved career coach and serial entrepreneur based in the UK, told Bored Panda. “Today, some of the skills that are most highly valued in bosses are communication skills, coaching and mentoring skills and relationship-building skills,” she explained.

According to Mitterbauer, a great boss puts the team and the goals of the company before themselves. “Whereas earlier, a good boss would tell their employees what to do, today, they should empower their employees to do the job themselves. A good boss also realizes she/he is often not the smartest person in the room, and knows how to bring out the very best in her/his employees.”

The career coach explained that some people naturally have the skills mentioned above, and they will therefore be naturally good leaders without much specific leadership training. “But most people would benefit from training, ideally including on-the-job training,” she added.

Inclusive? Wouldn't it only be inclusive if everyone in the company gets 15 minutes extra for their own spiritual, emotional or other mental health need whether that's praying to something else, meditation, reading a book, using Facebook etc?

BP sure does atrract a lot of Islamophobes. Do these people worrying about this Muslim person's coworkers even know whether they were okay with the decision or were consulted? It doesn't even take 15 mins to perform zuhr. Also whose stopping the other employees from asking for an additional 15 mins? I am sure if the boss has been so accommodating to this person, they would have accommodated everyone else as well but no, let's just write nasty comments like 'keep your religion home' when non Christian religious practices are being accommodated for once. Interestingly, the same country that forces kids to pledge allegiance to a flag which is the secular form of religion and die in its defense sees no problem with sitting in judgement on what Muslims can and cannot do.

Wait, so this employee just gets to have 15 minutes off while everyone else works? Because they feel like it? That's doesn't seem fair. You already have an hour for lunch to do whatever you want. Pray then.

In my field most people are either Eastern European Jews, Hindu, or Muslim. Most companies have a mother's room for pumping, and another set of prayer rooms for the Muslim staff. I'm one of the rare South Americans on staff. Still a Jew, but not Russian, Ukrainian, Hungarian, etc.

“Communication, coaching and relationship-building skills are all skills that can be taught if you have the right mindset and take the lessons and insights onboard. Ideally, a great leader also has empathy and the ability to put their minds into that of others, and these are skills that are harder to teach,” Mitterbauer told us.

Slightly different response. Boss came in this morning and called me by my name, hugged me when I broke down crying.

lizertoast Report

Employees want to feel listened to and respected, so a good boss will honor this and show, over time, that they value the input and work from the employee, Mitterbauer said. She argues that “it feels genuine, this process takes time, as there have to be several instances of feeling listened to and respected.”

“Giving regular constructive feedback to the employee is important, as is spending time training and simply listening to the employee on a regular basis,” the career coach concluded.

My Boyfriend Is Going Through Chemo For 6 Months And Has Surgery Coming Up. This Morning This Was Left On My Desk By My Boss

My boss loves stones of all kinds and we have talked about our love of labradorite. She had mentioned red labradorite which I had never heard of. The ring is red labradorite and the card says, "I think about you at times and what you are going through and I know how tough life can be. You are always positive and there for the clients, your peers, and even me. Here is something I wanted to give you. As I said, jewelry is my thing and this is a red labradorite. I love it and hope you do too. Please take care of yourself and know I am here for you as is the team. Have a blessed day!"

I've never heard of that stone before, so I googled it and found this: The gem is incredibly rare and I have seen some gem traders trying to sell Red Labradorite for over $1000 per carat, placing it amongst the most expensive red gemstones on the planet.

Everyone fails every now and then. That is how we learn: Failling is not bad, however you can handle it in good or bad ways. If you never fail, you were not challedged enough, will propably be bored like hell, and won't grow as a person as a result. What is important is how you failures are handled, and getting the ballance just right between the numbers of successes and failures.

One blessing at work is I get to decide if staff gets extra time off. I give my incredible staff all day Good Friday, all day Christmas eve (and sometimes a half-day off before Christmas eve), New Year Eve, their birthday, plus a floating holiday of their choice. And I like it when a holiday falls in the middle of the week, because I'll give them the day or days before or after off. My new President doesn't really appreciate it though. My days are numbered there.

the sad thing is that the immediate managers probably don't make THAT much more and need to pay out of their pocket, while the big bosses get a spending budget but don't use it - or on stuff for themselves (again, not all of them, but I see it in my company. Bosses get 500.- a month for expenses which they do not have as they don't travel/go for lunches and they could easily invite the team for a few drinks but nope, not happening)
