Your Type
You fear being disliked, always managing the team as a buddy. This obsession with 'keeping peace and superficial harmony' actually reflects your extreme evasion of 'power conflicts and taking on the bad guy role'. You fear strict demands will ruin relationships, so you use 'friendliness' to mask your weakness in making tough decisions. But constantly playing the nice guy will drive away truly capable employees who feel it's unfair. Try giving a firm boundary next time you must say 'no'; when you learn to not fear offending people, you'll earn genuine respect.
