Ep 68 - When You and Your Boss Don’t Get On

Tension between managers and their direct reports isn't unusual but it can make work feel difficult and uncomfortable.

This tension usually comes down to different leadership styles, communication styles, priorities or personalities.

In this week’s podcast, I share:

  • The most common reasons tensions occur and practical tips to defuse them
  • Why we should value different leadership styles
  • The types of communication styles using the Insights Profile
  • How you can apply these insights to yourself as a line manager

I hope you find these tips helpful, particularly when it comes to managing and influencing upwards and sideways.
