Bad boss basics
- So welcome to my training course on how to deal with a bad or difficult boss. It's a really important subject this. Bosses can make your life a misery, and it's not your fault, you can be the best person ever and a difficult boss can ruin things for you for all kinds of weird reasons, sometimes they're genuinely evil people, but quite often they're just incompetent. No one's ever told them how to be a good boss, for example, they might think that criticizing you is going to improve your behavior, so that's what they do. And it is amazing how bosses can get under your skin, and they can slowly undermine you and destroy you in the end. So, we need answers. So what I've done is I've listed what I think are the top 16 things that bad bosses do, and for each one I'm gonna give you tactics of how you can deal with it. I've got different tactics for each one. Some tactics work for several types of problem boss but I'll explain that as we go along. So, let's get started.
