What business leaders are most likely to make you question your own sanity? Join Mavidea’s creepy, Halloween countdown.
In honor of the creepiest of holidays, we’re going to count down our ghoul’s parade of the business culture’s most nightmarish leaders. Having to report to one of these management monsters is enough to haunt you for life!
Number 5: The Office Space Alien – This guy’s been off exploring his own inner universe so long that dealing with real world issues seems like from another planet! Count on the Alien to endlessly orbit the problem – without ever touching down enough to take a productive action. He’s usually so focused on his own otherworldly concerns that he fails to make real world connections. Woe to you if you need him for an important decision. He’ll probably make you feel as if you might as well be on the moon.
Number 4: The Incredible Shrinking Manager – There’s no detail too small to attract the destructive criticism of this compulsive micromanager. Instead of leading her team members onward to victory, she leads them ever inward – and backward – to a non-existent time when she could do it all better herself. As her team misses milestone after milestone — and becomes hopelessly mired in confusion — her leadership vision shrinks ever smaller in her own over-complicated, myopic view.
Number 3: The Mummy – This mummy dearest is not your mama. But she acts like she is in the most smothering way possible. Always dwelling on the dark side, she’s endlessly wrapped up in a sense of impending doom – along with the fixation that you can’t do a thing for yourself. Don’t count on Mummy to help you spread your wings! She’ll pile on enough pointless details to keep you tied down for eternity.
Number 2: Vampira – A job should be fulfilling, right? Not with this soul sucking vamp around. She’ll pretend like she’s on your side – only to bite you in the back when you least expect it. Always protected by shady alliances, she’s never around when there’s work to be done. This fact doesn’t stop her from draining away all the credit when recognition time comes around. Conversely, if there’s a problem to be untangled, watch as Vampira transforms the truth and disappears into the night.
Number 1: The Zombie – Is he alive or is he dead? You’ll find out when he suddenly springs to life and tries to take off your head! You’ll know him by his shuffling gait, dull gaze and heavy mouth breathing. Don’t let his slo-mo style fool you. He has a troubling habit of asking to pick people’s brains – only to eat them later. Were you hoping to live a productive life outside this hall walker’s shadow? Don’t bother. This one lives forever.
