Do Employees have a right to perform according to their Idea, rather then following Bosses rules.?

yes but think the situation when your boss is less qualified and talented than you.

Not all of the time. Many times there are rules and regulations that must be followed in the majority of businesses. If too many employees start operating according to their own concepts & ideas, that could be bad for business. There are exceptions to many rules such as: if it is understood between top management and selected employees that some or all employees can make certain decisions or work in a way that is different from the others.

For many companies, if an employee has permission from their boss then they could implement some changes or new ideas. If one employee starts to act out on his/ her own according to their own will, then soon, a lot more employees will want to do the same thing. It all just depends on the type of business and working environment. 

Hello Mehul, Good question. it all depends on their Bosses. Most of them may not like the ideas suggested by their employees.  it is better to follow the boss ideas instead of suggesting the ideas and getting into the problem.

Why does a team have a leader??

Its an interesting debate Mehul. You see what people need to understand here is that every organisation has teams working for them and each of them have a head on top called the boss. Similarly there is a boss on your bosses top too and he maybe the Chairman or the MD or the CMD!!

If you have an idea, you have the right to follow it provided its pertinent. How would you know that?? If you have realised that at any stage of your working in a company you need to establish certain protocols and certain hierarchy. Once that is understood then you go about striking a relationship. if you are successful in striking a relationship with your boss, he / she is the right person to validate your idea and then you follow it deligently.

According to me, bosses have a right to know whats on your mind first and then I am sure you get the opportunity to follow your ideas.

I remember my first day in my job. One of my colleague who was quite experienced by that time told me two golden rules of corporate world:

First, remember always that your boss is always right.

And the second and the most IMPORTANT rule, whenever in doubt refer to the first rule.

I laughed a lot and enjoyed it. Never anticipated the seriousness of it. But after many years I firmly believe that the rules stand true. Whatever arguments we give, whatever claims we can make but the truth is that it all depends on your supervisor/manager/leader/boss. If your boss is a good and favorable then your job is kkkooool else you are in soup.  

There is 2 possibilities in this case If the Boss is correct or Wrong when an employee is having his own idea might be better or may not be But if the Idea is good or excellent the boss would praise the employee and give all rewards to the employee but in the next scenario if that employees new idea doesnt work then he has to take all the blame by himself .But in both tee scenarios I would take the old ideas imposed by Boss itself as it would be time saving as well as it would be not problematic but in some cases the employees should prove the worth like finding new ideas but should be in free time and achieving critical deadlines

On many occasssions employees ideas are murdered by sating they do not sync with the vission or philosophy or idea or dynamics of the company

Most bosses are very insecure as it gets lonley up there so its more of yes boss is right even if a boss has brain of a donkey cum buffallo

No. Its a naukri. Follow your boss and follow in line. Perform according to your idea, no way. You have not laid the mission and vision of the company, how can you think of your own and act. If you have the courage to perform according to your own idea, open your own company. However, liberal the boss is, naukri is a form of slavery. Its not meant for people with their own ideas. Howsoever good be the perks or salary or designation, employee has to follow the owners. wow, what a better question to ask from a freelancer.

I think it should not be done outrightly. First new ideas should be discussed with boss and its imperative to take your boss into confidence.

Moreover your boss might have tried that idea before; you should definately respect his experience.

If you got a new powerful idea, your boss will take it positively for sure...unless he/ she is inept decision maker or he/ she is strong reaon for that.

If you are to survive in a corporate, hierarchy prevails and you have  to performance according to the expectations of your bosses.

If you don't have any bosses then you can perform as per your will.

I am firmly for No , since if this policy were followed by every employee , there would not be any company left , only anarchy.

Society is based on rules ; every game has its own set of rules. In olden times , even war was fought within a given framework of rules.

When an employee joins a company , he agrees to abide by its rules , whether he agrees with them or not. Some companies might follow wrong practices , such as racial discrimination or caste discrimination. If I cannot stomach such practices , I can make my feelings known to the concerned authorities and can plead for them to be discontinued. If I cannot , then either I keep quiet or I leave the company and find myself another one. Staying within the company and disobeying the rules is not done.

The correct thing to do , would be to discuss the matter with your boss , and do your best to convince him / her about the correctness of your ideas. Hopefully , truth will triumph , sooner or later.

Another point to note is that perception depends on one's view. When a war is being fought , the view from the trenches is vastly different from the view at the general's desk. Neither the private nor the general should judge the other ; each should go about his own job conscientiously. Similarly , in an organization , the boss's view is based on his perception , which may be different from yours. You cannot assume your perception is right ; it is possible the facts that you know do not encompass the whole truth.

Not always; it depends on the “Boss’s” ability, qualification, education and insecurities.
