Likeability does not always equal a competent leader. Although the boss-employee relationship is of paramount importance, when relationships become misaligned with organizational goals, team problems shortly follow.
No one wants a bully boss, but nice leaders often create unintended drama because the priority is to be liked and avoid conflict. Even nice leaders need to set boundaries, clarify expectations, and initiate difficult conversations.
