My boss is very controlling and does not really trust the team, he manages with a do as I say or you know where the door is style -in short he behaves like a major d..k!
How do I influence things?
Summary:
- Get the full story - as in all the facts not just a part truth and your own assumptions
- Understand the boss and find out what the drivers are
- Examine my own drivers, try to improve the relationship
- Generate other possibilities or options in writing
- Speak to the boss - be empathetic and control the emotions
- No matter what the decision thank the boss and ask for feedback
As always I look forward to your comments and if you have a question please email it to claudia@makeworkmeaningful.co.uk
