HOW to handle The Boss!?
Octoberth is National Boss’s Day - a secular holiday. Rule number one: Remember this date! :)
It reportedly began in when a woman named Patricia Bays Haroski registered the holiday with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce because she wanted to designate a day for employees to show appreciation for their managers. Haroski chose Oct.th because it was her father’s birthday, and she working for him (…) In, four years after registering the holiday, the Illinois Governor officially proclaimed the day, which is now observed in the U.S. and countries such as Canada, Australia and India.
Rule number two - Know Why?
WHY handle The Boss?
Teri Hockett (chief executive of What’s For Work?): “It’s very important to have a strong, or otherwise healthy relationship with your boss for a varietyof reasons”:
1. The Boss has a tremendous amount of influence over workplace stress, whether real or perceived. They can make the workplace exciting and something to look forward to each day, or a place that you dread visiting.
2. The Boss typically holds the key to your advancement (…). Without a good relationship may not speak highly of you or consider nominating you to other positions, departments or companies, regardless of your performance.
3. Having a good relationship with your boss just makes sense. Work consumes most of your time usually, and having good relationships will make things more enjoyable and lead to opportunities.

Rule number three: To strengthen Your relationship with Boss Put yourself in Boss’s shoes!
Figure out the challenges your boss will encounter that day and be prepared to offer solutions, Mazur suggests. “Anticipate the questions that your supervisor may ask about your work or a project and have thoughtful answers or next steps for them to take. Thinking ahead can really show that you’re an invaluable team member.”
Andy Teach (an author of From Graduation to Corporation), says it’s easy to be resentful of your boss, especially if they treat you a certain way, “but they have a job to do, just like you,” he explains. “There’s a lot about their job that you don’t know about or see, so don’t assume that they’re out to get you,” he adds. “Sometimes they act a certain way for a reason–perhaps their boss is putting a lot of pressure on them–so try to be understanding.”
Rule umber for: Show value!
“They hired you for a reason, so make sure that you’re adding value to the organization and/or position,” Hockett says. “Bosses want employees not only to agree with them, but also be willing to speak up about the realities and challenges in the business that need to be addressed. Be the person that speaks with facts, confidence and reasonable suggestions that produce results. This builds your boss’s confidence in you.”
post scriptum :)
Andy Teach:
“You don’t have to love your boss but you need to be able to work well with them. One of the main reasons employees leave their job is because of their boss. A troubled relationship with your boss can negatively affect your morale, your productivity, your happiness, and of course, your career. A positive relationship can improve your morale, productivity and happiness which could lead to more career success in the form of promotions, raises and higher self-esteem.”
Maroney: “strong relationship” may mean different things to different people, but what she has seen again and again is that “it’s important to manage your relationship with your boss if you expect to prosper in a job.”
Good Luck :)
