Good word! The value of a great boss coupled with the knowledge that the company was fine before you is a great motivator to take care of your mental health. I’ve long been a proponent of a positive-but-adversarial relationship with my employer. We’re making an exchange of my expertise for their money. Our interests are fundamentally opposed to each other - I’d like more money for less of my time, and they’d like the opposite. That relationship can still be positive and healthy, but we must each realize that that our arrangement is fundamentally temporary. It will, counterintuitively, be less temporary if my employer is interested in my long term development. Develop employees so they can leave you; treat them in such a way that they won’t want to.
