How to Deal with Difficult Bosses

Aug 20, 2019

Want to reduce stress and pain at work because your boss is difficult?

There will often be times when you’ll have to deal with different types of difficult people. These people may be within your organization, such as employees, your peers, or your boss.

You must deal with these difficult people in a way that brings about the most significant impact on you and the areas you manage.

Start Dealing With Your Difficult Boss Using These Tools

In this podcast, I talk with Tony Penn of Results Driven Leadership, training in Psychology, and Executive Coach. He shares some unique insights. 

You have a different challenge when it is the boss who is a problematic person. The wrong strategy for handling things with a difficult boss can negatively impact your career path.

Important: Don't discuss your feelings about these behaviors with anyone other than your boss.

Use the SBI approach.

Accept the following realities of addressing your boss’s behaviors with them:

  • Your boss has the last word.
  • Don’t go to battle with your boss over the little
  • Don’t draw a line in the sand that, in the future, you will wish you had not drawn.

Communicate the sensitive subject of a boss’s behavior privately with the boss.

Let’s now look at some of the different destructive behaviors by a boss and how you might handle these behavior situations.
