What should I do if I meet a grumpy boss?

In an enterprise, the boss is an out-and-out soul figure, and how to treat the boss is a very important thing.

The president of a company works hard and is strict with himself. He is very dedicated. He only sleeps for three or four hours every day, and never goes home before eleven o'clock in the evening. It is common to go home late at night. However, the president has a strong personality and loves to lose his temper, which often makes his subordinates, especially middle and senior leaders, embarrassed in public.

Sure enough, at a meeting attended by ordinary employees, two vice presidents who were speaking were forced to stop speaking and walked off the stage because of their wordiness. At that time, the venue was quiet enough to hear the sound of the needle falling to the ground. Originally a well-prepared meeting, now everyone is embarrassed by the anger of the president.

Someone asked the president, why don't you authorize your subordinates to do it, and you can spend more time on the strategic events of the enterprise? He said: actually, I am very tired and I really want to authorize the following people to do it. But they often can't do it well, so I have to do it myself. Maybe there is something wrong with China's educational methods. My subordinates will only obey, not innovate. Moreover, enterprises in China face too many uncertain factors, some of which are unpredictable and cannot be authorized in advance.

For these reasons, the president sometimes can't help losing his temper, because he is anxious when he sees the inefficiency of his employees, even though he is trying to restrain himself from losing his temper.

It seems that the president won't let his subordinates do other things anytime soon. As the saying goes, a leopard cannot change his spots. As a subordinate, what should I do when I meet such a boss? Here are three ways to help you who are confused.

(1) Resign and find another job.

If you really can't stand it, and your temper is not patient, then quit your job and look for a job. If the boss always instructs you to do something every time you want to do it, you should do it. Sometimes you think it might be better to do what you want, but maybe the boss gets impatient without saying a few words. Although the boss is still positive about your work performance and you have been promoted, in the long run, it is difficult to give full play to your talents.

(2) Be soft and adapt slowly.

Ms. Wang has many working experiences, worked as a technician in scientific research units, and worked in state-owned enterprises for many years after going to sea. She works in a company and has recently been transferred from business manager to administrative manager. Because the work is close to the market, I often have to ask for instructions and report to the president. The president's evaluation of her is that her work is in place.

Someone asked: The president often criticizes his subordinates, but speaks highly of you. Can you tell me how you did it? She said that the president's characteristic is that he is too capable, so he is a little uneasy about his subordinates and has to ask everything, so he is too busy and naturally angry. If you report to him at this time, you will definitely be criticized, and he will say that you can't do anything well. But if you don't let him know anything and do it yourself, the effect will definitely be bad. Because he thinks that no one else can do it well, how can you do it well? So everyone thinks he has a bad temper. At this time, I usually don't report directly to him, but write down what I want to report and send it. After reading it, he will ask his secretary to give me feedback. Generally speaking, I agree with my approach and occasionally let me go for an interview. Often when he thinks things are important and has finished trivial things, it is easy to communicate and speak smoothly.

This is a kind of elasticity, which is based on a full understanding of human nature.

In fact, bosses who have a big temper and love to get angry are mostly resolute, resolute and enterprising people. They attach great importance to the completion of work tasks, and you may be reprimanded if you are slightly dissatisfied with them in this respect. To get along with such a boss, we should not only understand his personality characteristics, but also understand his practices. He didn't embarrass you. At the same time, we should also pay attention to what the leaders tell us, do things quickly and effectively, and don't procrastinate, especially pay attention to making all kinds of preparations before work, and don't fight unprepared battles.

When I am angry with such a boss, the best way is to bite the bullet and listen. Accept it when it is right, but don't agree to find an opportunity to explain it later. This is much better than defending immediately and adding fuel to the fire. You must understand that arguing with an emotional leader is futile and counterproductive.

In addition, if you can't do his job when he insists that you do something you don't want to do, you should make a change and think about it from another angle.

(3) for the cause, tit for tat

To do this, first of all, you should be an equally capable person with rich experience. Only in this way, officers can do their job well afterwards, and quarrel whenever they should.

Because the purpose of your quarrel with him is not because he criticized you, but because you don't agree with his practices or views on specific matters. Sometimes the boss loses his temper, and you can't extinguish his anger by indulging him. If the anger of the leader is unreasonable and you are wronged, and you have conclusive facts or evidence to prove it, then you might as well stick to your own point of view and seek truth from facts. But we should also pay attention to the way, be concise when quarreling with the boss, and don't drag the problem elsewhere.

If your boss really loses his temper because there is something wrong with your work, don't argue with him, but take immediate action and take measures to remedy and correct it. When the boss saw that his words worked, his anger naturally subsided by more than half.

However, before quarreling, you should know that your boss is not a narrow-minded person. If so, you'd better not say anything.
