Find these words
MANAGE and LEAD are both in this grid, and the gap between them is where most bad bosses live. One organises tasks. The other persuades people. DICTATE is in there as well, doing neither and pretending to do both.
The phrase word find turns up about as often as word search, so treat these 11 command words as whichever you prefer.
Frequently asked questions
Why do some of these words sound harsh?
DICTATE and MANDATE both carry the assumption that nobody gets a say, which is exactly what makes them useful and unpleasant.
Is there a difference between authority and control?
Authority is granted to you by others; control is simply taken, and it does not last as long.
