Well, you can aim for some level of trust, support, and mutual compassion. The corporation is an uncaring machine hellbent on stockholder value.

I'm friends with quite a few former direct reports. Even a couple I had to fire. And I am friends with several former bosses.

It's a role, and a responsibility

Some filthy folk might try to know you better to manipulate or control you so having some guard up is wise.

Personally I think of people as coworkers all the way up to the CEO. We're all human.

I hope you get to work with inspiring bosses or leaders so you can recognize them when you are shopping for a new boss.
