In our recent survey asking “How would you rate your love for your boss?”
across the Globe, we found that it was The Americans who loved their boss the
most in comparison to any other Continent including Europe, Australia, Asia and
the Middle East.
71% of Americans said that they “loved him/her” in their response when only
33% responded in the same way across Europe. In Europe, 49% said they thought
“he/she is ok – they are just a boss” keeping it quite reserved.
Employees across Australasia were the most indifferent with everyone
returning the “he/she is ok – they are just a boss” option.
It was those across The Middle East that had the highest response to the
more bleak option of “Cannot stand him/her” with 27%. 44% responded to the
middle of the road answer so it was not all bad!
No one responded in quite such a grim way in Asia - 20% said they “Love
him/her”.
Overall, the survey was quite a positive one in terms of how employees feel
about their boss with 35% actually saying that they “Love him/her”. 46% were
middle of the road by selecting “he/she is ok – they are just a boss” which left
only 19% who really did not like their boss and selected the “Cannot stand
him/her” option.
