Everyone
complains about his or her boss from time to time. But dealing with a
truly incompetent boss is frustrating and exhausting. Here are three
strategies to handle the situation:
- Have empathy. Resist the temptation to demonize,
and try to see things from your boss's perspective. Perhaps she is under
extreme pressure from her superior. Or, maybe he is still learning the
skills to do his job.
- Create boundaries. Don't let the circumstances
get you down. Put up psychological limits so that your boss's
incompetence doesn't negatively impact your health
or well-being.
- Move on. When all else fails, consider looking for a transfer to a new boss or a new employer. Don't
suffer needlessly.
