Some tips for communicating with your superiors Coming to this classic theme, I I am fully aware that the international community has already made a significant contribution to research of this problem. We are all in aware that “the boss is not late, but delayed" that "the boss always right" and so on. However, I wanted I would like to give those interested a few advice that may be of some help to you will help. So... Any boss is divided into several temporary and situational categories: 1) Morning boss. 2) Afternoon boss. 3) Evening boss. 4) Holiday boss. Methods of communicating with these categories are quite different from each other. Of course, there are several general rules behaviors that apply to everyone categories, but they are widely known, so we won’t dwell on them, but Let's look at the problem deeper. Morning boss Sometimes it happens that the boss shows up at the office before lunch. Some I was told about very egregious cases when the boss showed up even early in the morning. What are the reasons for this strange boss behavior? 1) Boss is tightdrank in the evening the previous day, came home in a state of such blue crocodiles that my wife had to postpone military operations until the morning. Early in the morning a heavy artillery, and the chief had to shamefully retreat to work. 2) The boss spent the night with his mistress, but in the morning the legal husband showed up, and the boss had to panic run across the balcony to work (because it was announced at home that he I'll be on a business trip for two more days.) 3) He didn’t go home at all, but the whole night drinking in the office with one of the businessmen partners. In any of these cases, the condition and the boss's mood is characterized as "cloudy, with occasional thunderstorms, tsunamis and typhoons." How to behave in this situation? Of course, the best thing to do is just not to get caught in his eyes. If this is for some reason reasons it is not possible, then you should learn some simple rules: 1) Do not stomp or slam the door. B office is best to slip into felt slippers. 2) Do not speak in any way full voice. Only in a whisper. None brave shouts: “That’s right, Peter Sergeich! Boo done in five seconds!" On any question from the boss who breaks through his suffering mask persons should respond or be politebow, or nod, or very quietly "Okay ssss." 3) If necessary, be close to the boss should not be allowed expressions: “Semyon Dionisovich! Breathe in side!" He definitely won't like this. What to do? Tolerate! Or offer to run for beer. 4) Any orders from the boss, related to the afternoon period, should be ignored. He's still talking about them will forget. Afternoon Chief The afternoon chief consists of three subcategories. 1) The boss who appeared in office after lunch. 2) The boss who materialized in the office before lunch and I dined tastefully. 3) The morning boss, who with over time smoothly flowed into lunch boss category. Oddly enough, all these subcategories differ little from each other, so the behavior method is very similar. The afternoon boss is relaxed, dull, benevolent and lethargic. Condition characterized as "clear and calm". The illusion of busy activity should not be created because it will interfere with his digestion. This period especially suitable for requests for promotion salaries, transfer to a higher one position. You can alsobring any papers for signature. The boss has absolutely no there will be no desire to read the papers before how to sign. Evening boss The most difficult category. Before the end working day, the boss is already looking forward to going to casino, preference with business partners, restaurant or meeting with your mistress. But since there is still time left before these events a couple of hours, he just needs keep yourself busy with something. He rushes around office, asks idiotic questions, for example, “what problem are you working on right now? are you working?" and generally behaves extremely indecent. What to do about it? There is only one way out. With terrible force to portray tense activity. Moreover, it should be remembered that It's not enough just to sit with looking smart at the computer and looking at payroll. Required physical effort. Personally I recommend take a pack of paper with some drafts and quickly rush around with her around the office, periodically losing leaves. From communicating with your boss you should avoid by any means. If he call, tell him interrupted from running around in a voice: “Gazanfar Mamedovich! I urgently need to transfer data to accounting and supply department! Maybe I'll see you laterShall I come?" I guarantee that the boss will not insist on immediate conversation, so he will let you go in peace, about noticing your vigorous activity. It is also necessary to check the moment the boss leaves work, to once again rush past him with a worried look, looking at his watch and muttering loudly under nose: “Damn, a lot of work has happened again. We'll have to stay another hour today three or four". I note that this is very significant moment. All day boss usually remembers only the last two or three the faces that came his way in front of care. So this is very important. But not in under no circumstances share this secret with the whole office, because there is a crowd of people, mumbling about her desire to work more a few hours, which is "random" gets caught by the boss before leaving the office, may raise some suspicions. Holiday boss From the context it is clear that we are talking about the boss, who together with the employees participates in some party. Some for some reason they think that at a party with bosses can relax and lead yourself as you please. Nothing similar. Party is one way attract attention. And they can be completely different ways that should in the futurecombine with the above. 1) Method one called "Glory Herostratus." Based on what is needed draw the boss's attention to your person at any cost. That is, to produce some an act that everyone will pay attention to, including the boss. Why is this being done? So that the boss will simply remember you in the face. This will always come in handy. Of course you shouldn't do something something that would embarrass the boss position. He's your face at the same time will probably remember, but already with complete other purposes. Therefore not recommended don't care about his jacket, cut off his tie or fall on him with a glass of beer in his hands. For example, try dancing tap dance on the table, beat the waiter out of hands a tray or suddenly a rooster crows. But you only need to do this once at a time. evening. Otherwise, you risk blurring the impression. In the following days, strictly follow tips for communicating with superiors in the office, and he will think with emotion: “Well, it’s necessary what a nice employee. And knows how to have fun, and works with scary force." 2) Method two called "Nanny" Arina Rodionovna + enthusiastic listener" Become the boss during the holiday mother, nurse, friend and confidant. Try to take placeto the right or left of it. Constantly (but unobtrusively!) ask: what would Grigory Andreevich would like to eat, Should I take his jacket to the dressing room? Should I add more to the salad, should I splash it? into a glass of vodka and so on. Every phrase of the boss is necessary greet with loud and prolonged laughter, sometimes starting with delight applaud. When the boss becomes everything tell those present what he is like good boss and how to take care of employees, carefully insert it into it speech their additions characterizing him from an even more remarkable side. At some point the boss already bites hard and attacks you personally talk about your personal problems. At the same time make a sympathetic face, nod head, raise and lower your eyebrows, in a word, express the extreme degree interest. But don't you dare load the boss with some of yours personal problems. It's not his at all interested. Some people mistakenly believe that a pretty drunk boss is necessary put him in a taxi and take him home. Nothing like that! If he's nothing at all understands, he won’t even remember who he is drove. So there's no point in trying. A if he even understands something in the morning your memory will come to mindhelpful face, present during the kissing scene boss of a taxi driver, no twelve attempts falling to get to the elevator, as well as during the stage your meeting with your hotly hated wife, assume that you will be fired within two minutes. Because there are no such witnesses It is customary to remove human weakness. If not from life, then at least from the office. That's probably all.
