Yes I agree not only great boss but every one who is great listener is Successful...
This is very true.
A good boss is a very great listener as well. It is a skill.
Listening to the subordinate will give him encouragement and motivation. When the subordinate understands that my boss is willing to listen to me and he is respecting what I need to tell him, it would make him more productive and efficient.
When I was working as an intern, I personally felt this. When my manager asked me to put in my thoughts and ideas, I started to observe and engage more. My commitment and dedication is also increased.
Hence in my opinion listening skills make a great boss. It is mutually beneficial. Boss is very experienced but a young subordinate might have more fresh ideas. Sometimes a boss would have more complex problems and strategic decisions to manage and a subordinate would be more free thinking and this can help in getting better ideas very fast.
