CEO sends CCTV footage of employees in a group work chat while's he's out of town: 'He's watching us. I'm quitting tomorrow'

Imagine going about your workday, only to discover that your boss is watching your every move. This CEO couldn't trust his employees enough to fulfill their daily tasks and responsibilities while he was away on a business trip. In fact, his lack of trust was so egregious that he decided to plant cameras and carefully monitor the CCTV footage of his team at their respective work stations in his absence. The fact that he had the audacity to film his employees without their approval and then to reveal that he has been watching them this whole time speaks volumes about the safety and health of this workplace environment. No one wants to work for an employer who is that dishonest, manipulative, and unnecessarily authoritative.

This kind of behavior also speaks to how out of touch this CEO must be. Clearly, this man comes from a generation and a culture where intimidation was the proper tactic to keep employees under his control. What he didn't realize was that his so-called "leadership tactics" actually ended up being the worst way to maintain loyalty and solidarity among his team members. 

Instead, it did quite the opposite. Now, his employees are calling his tactics into question. In fact, the author of this anecdote has already decided that he's going to quit. It's as if watching your employees like a hawk in order to keep them in check actually resulted in them wanting to leave the nest, so to speak.
