Toxic bosses are an organisational reality. Unfortunately, the corporate universe values the knowledge of leadership more than the actual practice of leadership, which is relegated to showcasing by some iconic leaders. The corporate universe, therefore, finds itself strewn with toxic bosses or TBs (those who know their leadership theory too well) but their horrific real-time leadership practices would leave even their teachers red-nosed and embarrassed.
Whether your boss is an indecisive chocolate wrapper, an unambitious grunt, a control freak, a politician or a whip–cracker, all TBs are a blessing; they help you build your long-term versatility to tackle complex power equations. However, the question remains: what is the strategy to tackle TBs?

Keep your professional face on and do not lose focus from the delivery of your KRAs.

Avoid gossip or unnecessary coffee machine discussions on the subject.

Continue respecting your manager, be personable.

Never publicly react or confront TB’s insinuations.

Vireshwar I support you but it would have been great if you have asked it as a idea context. 

I think we should avoid wasting time and do the work on time, by not giving chance for the boss to show his face. This is one way we can handle them.
