40 Tips for Figuring Out Your Boss by Brad Dude is a tool that can be used to better understand your boss in a working environment. Brad uses the elements of nature - Earth, Air, Fire and Water - to reflect personality temperaments. Here is an overview of the temperaments in 40 Tips for Figuring Out Your Boss by Brad Dude: Earth bosses are planners and structured; Air bosses are micro-managers and require technically competent employees; Fire bosses are flexible and approach business in a humorous fashion; and Water bosses are people-persons and are advocates for their employees. Brad shows that in a working environment a boss’s dominant temperament is what you see and the type of shadow temperament that you possess determines how effective or ineffective your working relationship will be. The shadow temperament is that part of your being which may not be as dominant but is the innate part of you.
