From CommerceClearinghouse:

“Although nearly two-thirds (69 percent) of U.S. workers rate their supervisors as excellent or good, over a quarter (27 percent) believe that they can perform their bosses’ jobs better than their bosses. Workers aged 18-29 and those earning less than $20,000 annually were more likely to make that claim than their counterparts in higher age and income brackets, according to a national Hudson survey on managerial performance. Also, nearly a third of male workers say they could outperform their bosses, compared to a fifth of female workers. Nearly a third (31 percent) of U.S. workers work for supervisors who are about their same age, with one out of every six workers (16 percent) reporting to someone younger. Workers give almost identical performance ratings for both male and female bosses. Seventy-one percent of male employees rate their male bosses as good or excellent in comparison to 68 percent who rate their female bosses the same. Similarly, 69 percent of women employees rate their male bosses as excellent or good while 71 percent rate female bosses the same way. The Hudson supervisor survey is based on a national poll of 1,246 U.S. workers and was compiled by Rasmussen Reports, LLC, an independent research firm.”
