Attitude

What impresses a boss more: attitude or ability?

Attitude – especially a negative one — can be the determining factor in your relationship with an employer.
Research reveals supervisors are able to pick up on negative traits such as anger, hostility, or instability early in the relationship. These traits can destroy a working relationship almost before it begins.
Even if an employee has considerable ability, a negative attitude will stick in the employers mind. Once that first impression is formed, it’s hard to change.
