It´s lonely on the top

 

If you work as a senior manager or run your own business, it can often be perceived as being lonely at the top. It is often difficult to find like-minded people to talk to about the problems and challenges that exist at work and to get advice, when many people in their usual interactions do not have the same responsibility or understanding for the questions that need answers.

 

The phrase "lonely at the top" often describes the sense of isolation or lack of social support that a person may feel when they achieve a high position or a large amount of success. This can be due to several factors.

 

  1. First, it can be difficult for people in high positions to find someone to talk to about their challenges and experiences because they may not have anyone else around them who can relate to their situation. They may also feel reluctant to share their problems and worries with others because they believe it might make them weak or vulnerable.
  2. Second, high-ranking people may often have to make decisions alone and be responsible for the company's or organization's successes and failures. This can create a lot of pressure and anxiety, which can make them feel isolated.
  3. Thirdly, there can be a concern about feeling like a failure and incompetent when, as a senior manager, you don't have the answers to everything. This can also include a concern about losing the job because one is perceived as incompetent and inept.
  4. Fourth, problems and challenges in the workplace are sometimes due to private problems, which you absolutely do not want or dare to talk about with your colleagues.
  5. Finally, high-ranking people may also feel isolated because they may not have the time or energy to invest in social relationships in the same way as others. They may also find that other people around them are more interested in exploiting their position for their own gain than in really building a relationship with them.

 

However, it is worth pointing out that this is not a universal experience for all people in managerial positions and that there are many high-ranking people who have strong support from their colleagues and close relations.
