HOW TO GET ALONG WELL WITH YOUR BOSS
A lot of employees do not get along well with their bosses. This can
be attributed to various factors within the organization. Some employees
view their employers as devils who are out to exploit them. This is
most definitely not the case because in most cases your boss wants what
is best for you. I have come up with few steps to follow so that you can
get along well with you boss.
PUT YOURSELF IN YOUR BOSS`S SHOES
Imagine that you are the boss how would you treat your employees? Would
you be very rude to them or would you be polite and understanding? These
are some of the questions that you should ask yourself. The boss is a
person who has personal interests as well as organizational goals in the
end the boss has to make sure that organizational goals are met because
if the goals are not met he and not you the employee is answerable to
the board of directors and/or shareholders. So if you were the boss I am
sure that you would do the same so it is always good to understand your
boss when he quarrels you for coming to work late.
ALWAYS HAVE A POSITIVE ATTITUDE TOWARDS WORK
Some employees have an extremely negative attitude towards their work
and as a result they end up having a bad relationship with their boss.
Some think that they are slaves and their bosses are their masters. This
attitude will definitely affect your performance and the boss will not
be very pleased with you and will end up putting you on probation or
even dismiss you. But if you like what you do nobody will quarrel you
and you will be having a lot of fun at work.
PUT ORGANISATIONAL GOALS AHEAD OF PERSONAL GOALS
It can be very selfish of any employee to put personal goals ahead of
organizational goals. Organizational goals are very important because
if the organization expands then you as a career person will also
benefit as you will be able to advance your career. People with selfish
interests don’t normally go very far in the corporate ladder.
CONSIDER YOUR WORK HABITS FROM AN OUTSIDERS POINT OF VIEW.
Put yourself in the shoes of an outsider would you like you habits at
work? Coming to work late, not meeting deadlines, escaping from duty
earlier than it is allowed? Would you like such kind of habits? If no
then you should change in order to get along well with your superiors.
