Hello ladies, and Welcome to Episode 18 of The Career Woman’s Secret Playbook Podcast! I’m your host, Dr. Dawn, CEO/Founder of Dr. Dawn ShopTalk and you might remember that last week’s episode was all about what to do when your office is driving you nuts – WELL, what IF the person who is driving you nuts is YOUR BOSS? THAT presents it’s OWN challenges, doesn’t it, and THAT is what we are going to talk about today!
OK folks, as we get started, let’s FIRST look at this statistic: Did you know that a difficult relationship with a co-worker of boss is the number 1 reason that people leave their jobs? Did you know that a difficult boss is a situation that most professionals have to deal with AT LEAST ONCE during their careers?
Well, with these 2 easy but powerful strategies, I am going to show you not only HOW to work with someone who is difficult BUT, I’m going to show you that there are actual benefits to doing so! While your first instinct may be to resign from your position, dealing with a difficult supervisor is often the best and most productive option. Why? Because it forces you to address the situation, and when you do, it will lead us to the 1st strategy:

#1 - The Benefits of Confronting the Problem:

Reduced work-related stress/chance of illness
Increased work satisfaction/relationships
Increased job productivity/potential for career advancement

When you think of these kinds of stressors and challenges as opportunities instead, you will see all the benefits to you AND your skill set in working it out.
#2 - Something we are calling ESP: You know when we think of ESP, we typically think of Extra-Sensory-Perception, or that 6th sense, right? And although I am going to be using a SLIGHTLY different definition for OUR purposes, this idea of being able to see what other’s can’t, is still VERY relevant.

E - Empathize with what your boss is facing
S - Strategize what your boss needs
P - Practice your leadership skills
