Pride is a trap
that often swallows up many people especially those with ranks, money talents
or beauty to show off. It comes automatically from the heart and it tends to
wire up into someone's behaviors thus making hard to control. So if a boss is
not sensitive enough, the egotism could be extremely oppressing to the juniors,
or those below. Some bosses don't know themselves thus by trying to define who
they are they may course tremendous pain to the subordinate staff. Hence the
essence of knowing how to deal with a prideful boss.
Two things are
important when dealing with such a character;
1. Humility
2. Courage
A Boss suffering
from pride will always want to have his ways and ideas up. Therefore may be
dangerous to content with him. This doesn't mean that you should not give your
opinion on how things ought to go, no, but only do so with humility. Don't spend
much time correcting your boss as this may create enmity. Prideful bosses don't
like to be challenged even if what they support is wrong. So why should putting
things straight against his wish be your bother.
Learn to let
things go by pre-programming you mind and knowing what you expect. When it
comes to dealing with a prideful boss you should expect bad looks, unreasonable
abusive language or even ill treatment. When all this comes, remain calm and
encourage yourself knowing that you are more strong and stable.
You see, being
proud is being unstable because the highly always tend to be over-expecting. So
with this in mind, you should know that your boss will always tent to be over
demanding in terms of respect, recognition and praise. All this should not
bother you, unless you also want to be regarded as “boss”- remain humble and
you'll conquer all!
