"I do not feel I am getting through to my
manager." A frequent statement I hear from client's staff and
employees.
So how to you get your voice heard? A few suggestions...
"Hey
boss, I would respect your insights on how we can better communicate around
ideas I have. Willing to set an appointment to discuss?"
"I
could be misreading you: when I offer my ideas and I don't sense you support
them, perhaps your expectation is just to move forward and you have no concerns."
"What
I really need is your validation that my ideas are viable and your are willing
to support them...or even have suggestions how I could best put them into
action."
Note to self:
Am I seeking validation because I need my bosses approval of
myself? Well, self validation is the best way
to become more motivated to do what you think is right!
