How many male Leo archetypes of bosses are there? I think I can never be under a Leo or taurus boss. They don't fit my idea of leadership. They are dictatorsI believe to be a boss the power must be given to be subordinates. It is not easy for Leo or taurus to do so that is why the offices run by those two are terrible places. Scorpio as well I believe but it depends if they are eagle Scorps The immature Leo boss exercises his power hungriness on subordinates thinking that they owe them a living. Overall I think it's hard to be a good boss. One must first be the boss of self. What happens when you encounter someone that wants to usurp you? Do your claws come out or do you treat them with reverence because you know they can never do so?

I'm a Leo female boss. I have 30 people I mange. Being a manger is a tough job, you really have to put your personal opinions/vies aside.It's about what the "company" wants not what I want.. It's my responsibility to enforce what's best for the company. But if course that should be done with respect. I hope I achieve that. For the most part I get along with everyone, but at times I have to draw a line between business and personal. I have had to fire people, it's really tough and when I do, I go home feeling like the worst person in the world.. But on a manger perspective I have to have the thinking, that I don't fire an employee, they fire them self. It's up to me to explain rules/policy and ensure they are being met. This one girl I fired, she to,d me may god strike you down, I have kids.. I told her, your not getting fired because of me, your getting fired because if your own actions, you violated a strict policy, you were aware of it, other people before you had gotten fired for the same reasons... You choose to take this action all by your self, no one forced you, and this is the consequence of your actions that as a manger I must enforce. Now on a human level, I felt really bad about it, I think she had 6 kids. But honestly what can I do... She did this to her self.. I always try to work with people on their personal needs, but they have to come to me and talk to me about what's going on... IP: Logged |

I think Leo females are fine it's the Leo males.I think it's due to the fact they are oppressed themselves. I think Leo females are given freer reign to be themselves. Leo males take their frustrations out on their subordinates because they're oppressed by other places. Not sure it makes sense but I noticed that. IP: Logged |

Lol.. But sadly, when she said that, I realized she blames everyone else or well maybe just me for her actions. She never took responisbitly. She changed her story 3 times.. Giving fake excuses instead of saying, hey I made a mistake.. In my eyes she did her self in deeper every time she spoke.. Even when I first asked her, tell me why you did this, her response was.. What does it matter, I'm not telling you.. I said ok, thats fine, here is your suspension paperwork. IP: Logged |

Btw Lioness I like how you explained things. It's very true it's about what the company wants but I noticed when Leo tend to have very dim heart chakras they try to destroy yours. My expectation of Leo male bosses would be a very healthy supportive emotional lifeHah! A Leo male when he is sarcastic he is worse than libra sarcasm! A non cerebral sign doesn't do sarcasm well. Esp a fire sign. You know there's something wrong when a fire sign becomes sarcastic. Their embers are not burning well. It's tough being a Leo IP: Logged |

I don't remember her sign, I did look it it, but it was a few years ago... I do know what you mean though.. We had a out if control manger, his whole team revolted against him, I asked him his bday and he's a Leo.. I thought ooo wow, you give Leo's a bad name... LolBut I felt he was an exception, never looked at his chart but from what I know about him, I would say he had some heavy Pluto going on.. He had control issues, which ended up being his down fall.

Interesting. My supervisor is a Leo woman, and while I admire her and like her as a person (she really is a good human being, and enjoyable to talk to), she micromanages her staff and clients to the point of making it impossible to actually accomplish much. I'm not sure of her other placements, but she can swing from being very compassionate to exploding in fury over something fairly trivial.My husband is a Leo, and I generally refuse to even help him move furniture, ha. He can be impossible to work with as a team, unless it's with the right person (i.e., he tells the other person what to do, lol). I have Leo AC, but with Pisces sun. I always thought I was very good at my job when I was in an assistant position. I did most of the work myself, made sure to train everyone thoroughly, and was always available if anyone needed to call me with questions, even in the middle of the night. But I didn't hover over people. IP: Logged |

I'm the same way. I don't have to manage, I'm kind of back up sometimes. I wouldn't micromanage either. Just state what needs done and they figure it out. Of course if they have questions/need help I'll be available. Now if I sensed some slacking off and not getting things done, they wouldn't like me much. LOL IP: Logged |

I've known so many Leo suns. Several, from my mom to my sister/friend to this other friend and probably some I am forgetting because I always seem to find the Leo suns for some reason. Leos like to be in charge, true. I don't know how many different archetypes there are. Once I angered my Leo sister/friend by refusing to clean her cat's litter box. I had my own cat at home I never asked anyone to clean his box so why should I clean someone else's just because it's the one chore everyone dreads the most? My Leo sun sister/friend did not appreciate my blatant refusal. I vacuumed the floor for her but drew the line at cat boxes so she did it but in a way that said, "you have really made me mad." My one Taurus sun friend could have owned me I wouldn't have protested.

Hm. Now that I think of it, my step-dad Leo was always in charge in his line of work, wherever it was that he was working. His employees despised him (may his soul rest in peace, as he recently left this world).He either *really* liked an employee (often fire signs, I noticed, as I worked for him for a while) or he couldn't stand them and would fire them shortly for some reason. He was not particularly fair, but he was extremely sharp intellectually, and was always appreciated by people who were his equals or direct supervisors. But he was not a man anyone wanted to work for, poor guy. Thankfully, he mellowed a bit with age. IP: Logged |

Leos are cool but need more compassion and insight and less egoCapricorns + the Knowledgeable Sag are the best 'boss' imo ------------------ 1st House: Sagittarius Ascendant, Sagittarius Moon, Sagittarius Neptune. 2nd House: Uranus in Capricorn. 3rd House: Saturn in Aquarius. 5th House: Ketu in Aries. 9th House: Mars in Leo. 11th House: Venus + Rahu in Libra. 12TH HOUSE: Sun, Mercury, Jupiter, Pluto in Scorpio.

My boss is a Leo with a Taurus Moon. I see him lose his temper at least once a week and yell like a mad man at someone--and he is the most impossible man to reason with. I'm a Scorpio with a Leo rising and it takes every ounce of me to not lash back at him. ROAR! IP: Logged |

Damn, there is really no excuse for someone to act like that. Not professional at all. IP: Logged |

My mother is a Leo Rising/ Aries Sun and is not a boss at work, but her personality is definitely a boss. She can be domineering to those around, which I do not like, but has a heart of gold. But is one of those people who like to be in the lead so to speak.

Yeah, that doesn't sound like an employee-friendly environment. Bosses should realize their employees are generally more productive when they are happier.
