Description
You are working for a “Boss from Hell!” - someone who negatively impacts your mental, emotional and physical well-being -– in total, your life -- daily. Your boss's behavior can be negative, brutal, terrible, bullying, stressful, sarcastic, demeaning, harassing, abusive, possibly even criminal (the list of adjectives can go on and on and on) - and all falling in your lap every day of every week of every month for who knows how long. You know this fact all to clearly. What you may not know is how to deal with your boss in a positive professional manner to resolve the problem that will make your job meaningful and enjoyable. That’s what this book is all about by telling you “this is what you do!” in seven steps:
Step 1 - Define your problem with your boss and what are your objectives. As someone once said, "Defining your problem is 50% of the battle."
Step 2 - Gather data about your problem - what others have done, different coping methods, what you can do and what you shouldn't do.
Step 3 - Evaluate your data and interpret what it means to you. Here, you should see your problem in different lights, different paths available, and what can work or fail.
Step 4 - List your options and approaches you can take from the most positive ones to those you can scrap.
Step 5 - Select your best option and develop a PROACTIVE plan of action that is specific, realistic, and comprehensive in dealing with your "Boss from Hell!"
Step 6 - Implement your plan professionally with time lines and "do's/don'ts" to watch out for.
Step 7 - Follow-up, modify as needed, revise your plan accordingly. Why? Because you will find that you problem is part of a never-ending story - you can resolve you "Boss from Hell" problem, but you must always take steps never to fall into it again. If you do, be prepared to handle the problem again. You should always be planning and preparing for staying on top of you career as long as you are in the work force..
In addition, this book will help you do the following:
• Assess various coping methods, techniques and strategies for working with your Boss from Hell.
• True-life stories of people I have worked with who have used this process and successfully dealt with their own "bosses from Hell!"
• Acknowledge the strengths you bring to the table because you do have strengths, but you may not know them, recognize them, or know how to utilize them. This book will show you how!
Following the recommendations and approaches in "Coping With Your "Boss From Hell!" will make you PROACTIVE. You will develop a plan of action that puts you in control by anticipating and addressing issues and conflicts before they occur because you are prepared and know what you want and need to do. Your alternative, if you don’t fix you problem, is that you will probably pay a very hefty price – if you haven’t already done so.
Understand this: You are not going to change your Boss from Hell. This is the way they are and this is the way they will probably be when they check out. However, you can successfully cope with your boss by following the steps, doing what is recommended, and saving yourself a lot of wear and tear.
Wishing you all of the best!
