It is critical for individuals to work together to achieve departmental and organizational objectives." Six Steps toward Building a Better Partnership with Your Boss Step 1: Keep Your Boss Informed When you keep your boss informed, you demonstrate responsibility, good communication skills and concern. Keep your boss up to date about projects’ progress, assignment completion and any anticipated problems. Treat problems and challenges as opportunities to show your boss what you can accomplish. When you tell your boss about a problem — have a solution in mind. You may not have a complete solution, but when you approach your boss with your ideas, you demonstrate your professionalism and ability. If you can anticipate problems and work to solve them, your boss will regard you as a valuable resource. Step 2: Do Good Work Good work is the hallmark of being a professional. To do good work: • Be knowledgeable about your job, your company and your industry. • Actively seek out new information through networking, trade shows and training opportunities. Share this information with your manager. • Check your work and make sure it is accurate and reflects positively on you. • Exceed performance standards. • Set personal and professional goals for development. • Build your management skills. • Keep your word and demonstrate personal integrity and honesty. Step 3: Praise Upward In order to effectively provide affirmation to your boss, use praise. Praise is a powerful agent for change. It can alter behavior more quickly and more effectively than negative feedback. When people receive praise, they usually want to reenact the behaviors that brought them the praise. So if you want your boss to act in a certain way, praise him or her. Step 4: Help Your Boss Succeed Your boss’s success is one way to measure your success. People often assume that a good boss surrounds him/herself with competent people. Conversely, if your boss is seen in a negative light, this can adversely impact you. You were hired to help your boss succeed. When your boss interviewed you, he or she believed not only that you could do the job that you were hired for and you would have a positive impact on him or her and the organization. If you help your boss succeed, it is most likely he or she will help you succeed as well. Step 5: Handle Conflict with Your Boss Conflict is a part of life, and a conflict with your boss is likely to occur at some point. What is important is how you handle the conflict. Here are some general guidelines: • Make sure your arguments are about principle, not personal gain. • Keep your arguments impersonal. Focus on the content of the argument, not on personal attacks. • Listen actively when discussing differing points of view. You will have time to talk if you listen first. • Don’t forget to keep your boss’s ego intact. Never publicly belittle or embarrass him/her. • Choose your battles. Know when to pursue an issue and when to let it go. • Make sure things are "smoothed out" after an argument. Although you can disagree on issues, you must work at maintaining the relationship. Step 6: Have Regular Performance Reviews with Your Boss Even if your organization doesn’t require an annual performance review, you should request regular feedback from your boss. A performance review is a tool. You can use it to synthesize information about yourself and also about your boss’s expectations of your objectives and performance. Remember it’s what you don’t know that hurts you. Even though it isn’t pleasant to hear a negative comment, not hearing that comment could be detrimental to your career. Even if you have quarterly appraisals with your boss, your boss only knows roughly 20-30% of what you actually do in your job. A good way to keep your boss informed about what you do is to submit a "Report" at the end of each week. This report is roughly a half page in length, takes about 15 minutes to prepare and takes your boss five minutes to read. Here are some items you might include: • How I made the company/department money this week • How I saved the company/department money this week • Crises I prevented this week • Crises I handled this week • Where I can use my boss’s help in getting something done If you write this report every week, at the end of the year, your boss will have 52 reports with which to document your progress.
