5 Signs of a Bad IT Leader
2. Punishment over positivity:
Punishing the employees for questioning the departmental decisions or simply taking the credit of a major launch are signs of lousy leaders.

"The punitive management strategy is really terrible because leaders end up spending all their time looking for errors or people who are out of line and coming down on them," says Riggio.
