How should I handle a situation where my boss came into the organization from another organization and has no background in our organization’s culture, work processes, or policies? They are often frustrated with the state of affairs, and I’m constantly explaining why things are the way they are and that these issues are organizational problems. This results in them thinking that I’m not open to change or critical of their approach. This question is related to the episode The Power Of Possible - Kat Cole | The Knowledge Project 117 and the clip Leading Former Peers
I have a question about the episode Bari Weiss on the Power of Choice and Voicing Change and the clip Setting Boundaries. I'm also frustrated about how I acted—responsive and thankful but also annoyed—when Kaitlyn suggested I do something differently. Overall, I have a weird relationship with one manager at work. I'm going to change how I've been acting. I'm just an intern, but it's not obvious; everyone else loves me, and I love them. It's just this one person, and I need to change my attitude. She rarely gives me the space to explain and often asserts herself in the middle of presentations without letting me continue. It's very different from everyone else there. While it's useful in some ways, it's also frustrating. I'm proud that I recognize I need to adjust to her behavior. Will this change help her loosen her resistance too?
