Discover these ancient Chinese “chengyu” about bad bosses, inept leaders, and lazy managers
Bad bosses can be costly. When Qu Jing, Baidu’s vice president and PR chief, shared her authoritarian management techniques on social media, the ensuing backlash knocked 6 billion Hong Kong dollars off the tech giant’s stock value overnight.
In several videos posted online, Qu admitted to forcing staff to become internet celebrities and declared that managers shouldn’t care about their employees’ lives outside the office. “Why should I care about her family? I’m not her mother-in-law?” Qu ranted about her female staff. She later resigned amid public outcry.
