What is that aspect in other types that makes a boss create a crisis and then makes the employees fix it?
My boss seems to not be very precise.
She sent out a bunch of emails telling people they hadn't renewed yet for the coming year and then we received a bunch of frantic responses from people saying, "Whadaya mean?! I sent my payment in weeks ago!" or something like that. I don't understand why she didn't do it more precisely than that. Or why she did it so early! So then I had to field emails apologizing for our mistake. I think it made us look really unprofessional. Besides, I already have ENOUGH work to do without her creating more... needlessly!
It seems to be a habit though... throw some mud up against the wall and see how much sticks. Apparently it's tied to a philosophy of how to do a job because my husband does things the same way. My boss is ISTJ and my husband is ISTP.
Do any of you have to deal with someone who uses that work method and
does it bother you as much as it bothers me?
