I once worked for someone who greatly impressed me as a boss.

He caught a fairly new employee stealing money from the COD returns. He knew the employee had a young family so he called in the police and the employee and they sat in his office.

He asked the employee if he had taken the money. The employee confessed that he had and explained his situation. At that point the manager asked the police to leave, telling the employee that if he hadn't confessed he'd have been leaving with them.

He then told the employee that he was going to give him a pay rise, as he was a good worker in all other respects. He also told him that he wouldn't get any of the raise until the money he had stolen was re-paid. That employee was still with the company when it was sold some years later.

That manager made himself a very loyal employee from that point on and also won respect from me and the rest of the workforce.

My tip is empathise, do unto others and treat all with compassion.
