If your boss is a bad one. If your Boss Really is an Idiot.
If your boss is a bad one. If your Boss Really is an Idiot.
This one is probably the single toughest one to overcome. If Your boss is a
bad one, things probably will not improve. Unfortunately, someone has got
to be in charge in any organization, and when Your boss is incompetent or
just unreasonable or biased, You are go’ing to be in for a long, tough slog
each day. If You boss is merely incompetent, the best th’ing You can do is to provide as
much help to him as You can. Not only will You make yourself invaluable to
him, You will also gradually learn his job—thus position’ing yourself to move
up in this, or a different organization. The greater Your skill set, the greater
Your flexibility when it comes to find’ing a more challeng’ing and fulfill’ing
If, on the other hand, Your boss is unreasonable and/or biased, You have
several strategies available – none of them good ones. You can buckle down
and take the abuse; do the job as best You can and hope that he notices
Your value; You can start look’ing for another job; You can go over his head
and hope that his boss might help; or You can seek legal action.
Keep in mind that Your boss’s boss may well not care if he is abusive
towards you. The higher ups in a company tend to be bottom line oriented,
and if Your boss’s numbers are good, Your unhappiness may just be the
price of do’ing business to them. If You are go’ing to fight, keep in mind that
there is a very good chance that You are go’ing to lose. Understand the risks
before You make the attempt! Have You reached a point where keep’ing
Your sanity mandates that You take the risk?
Your mantra (if You choose to fight) is DOCUMENT DOCUMENT DOCUMENT.
Write everyth’ing down. Keep a journal of what’s go’ing on, every time You
have contact through Your boss, note it. Keep’ing a record will also enable You
to cover Your backside if things do get out of hand. Protect yourself.
GOOD LUCK!
