What should you do if you encounter difficulties from your leader in the workplace?

1. Analyze the reasons for making things difficult

When we encounter this kind of situation where leaders deliberately make things difficult, we should not be too emotional. It is useless to be anxious, panic and angry. , will only get yourself into trouble, so the most important thing at the moment is to get yourself out of this emotion, analyze the matter calmly and rationally, and see what conflicts there are between you and the leader, and then leading to the current situation.

Generally speaking, leaders will not do this for no reason. If there is such a situation, then they have to find the reason from two aspects. On the one hand, it is their own problem, which may be that their abilities do not match. In the current position, it is also possible that although my abilities are in place, my attitude is not good and I have offended the leader under certain circumstances. On the other hand, there are external reasons. The company may be looking to lay off employees, so under the selection process, They want to lay off us from the company and ensure that the company does not collapse by reducing the size of the company and saving capital costs. Only when we know the reason can we solve the problem in a targeted manner.

2. Avoid conflicts with leaders

Although we don’t have a good relationship with leaders now, if we still want to work in this position in this company in the future, we must know how to communicate with leaders. Carry out relationship repair. When facing the leader, although he is somewhat hostile, we must treat him sincerely and maintain a certain respect for our superiors. When he makes unreasonable requests, we can politely but firmly refuse them, but if they are normal We can accept your request. Secondly, leaders sometimes deliberately seek trouble. Although we are angry at this time, we must treat others sincerely and avoid conflicts with leaders, which may lead to irreparable consequences.

3. Looking for backers

In fact, the leader can target us because he has the power to control the business of this department. If there is more power than him to restrict him, Then he won't do whatever he wants. If he can be familiar with the senior management, he will naturally not go too far with us, and we will have the basis and bargaining chip to negotiate with him. Therefore, we can properly express ourselves in front of senior leaders and gain their appreciation, so that leaders will no longer target us too much.

Four. Find a way out for yourself

But if none of the above methods work and the hatred of the leader is too serious, it is actually better to leave the company as soon as possible, even if I have been transferred to other departments or protected by senior leaders, but the leader's hatred is too strong, and it is very likely that it will explode one day, or it may cause trouble in secret. It is not a wise choice to have affairs with such people. So it is better to ride the donkey and find the next company that you are satisfied with as soon as possible.

Summary

So when we face difficulties from our leaders, we must look at ourselves calmly and not fall into an emotional whirlpool. While avoiding direct conflicts with our leaders, we must find ways to recover. For example, ask senior leaders for help or negotiate with the leaders to solve the problem. If it doesn't work, it is best to find another employer.
