| Topic: How do you handle with your boss with Napoleon complex | |

Really like my job, but sometimes want to quit. The very minute. Because of my boss. One of two things I would change immidiatelly in my job. He doesn�t really knows what�s all that about. But he behaves as a little Napoleon. And I get a "slap" if I�m too iniciative and save things - just because he didn�t know every my move. How do you handle with such a boss? |

He sounds like a "Micro Manager", also known as a "Control Freak". Their egocentric ideologies cause them to not trust your work or your decisions in the work place, so they second-guess everything you do. I have had bosses in the past like yours, but I also have a habit of standing up for myself. I approached them in a civil and professional manor and discussed their distrust in my decisions and/or work. If you are a valued employee I think you will find your boss willing to discuss this issue. Do this when you are not mad otherwise "being civil and professional" goes right the window. Good luck with your decision on how to approach this problem. Control freak - I like it  he�s just like that. everybody must be controlled. We have to do everyday reports what we did during that time, all what we do has to be controlled by him or his "right hand". But ok, if he wants that but when I tell him about problem and he does nothing to solve it for the whole week, I find the solution, solve it without waiting for him, he gives me cold shower. That I shouldn�t do anything without his permission. As I see it he might be only glad to have employes who do their job well and find solutions when there is a problem. But he was afraid of the person who helped me with it - she�s above him and he was probably afraid to ask her for help but when I came back after three weeks illness he increased my salary and gave me extra bonus. I guess he missed me  but today it was hard not to do him any harm - and then I realised they would arrest me for a human being - so I just imaginated it

How do you handle with such a boss? well it�s just a verbal slap in meaning how could I dare to do this or that, such a cold shower. But I do imaginate how it would be to kick him somewhere and yes, my collegues also agree with you - the guy�s an idiot

Give him plenty of pats on the head. Reassure him that he is "a good boy". ... and feed him a treat.  you guys, I needed this, thanks maybe he would be a good little boy, I�ll try to do it... not sure if he bites my hand

When I had bosses like that, I ignored them and just did my job. They would get pissed but couldn't do anything about it because I was doing my job, eventually they would back off. there is nothing else to do, just that. but when i remember how it was great to work there before, friendly atmosphere, we all solved everything together, couldn�t wait to come to my work in the morning, it was such a fullfilment. But I guess it�s about trust. We�ve had a boss to whome we could trust, she wanted us to do our job well, but when she opened the door and came in the office everybody smiled. Now, we all feel relief when this one is out of the building. |

Try this, usually does the trick  |

Just kick him in the bells. It'll bring his over inflated ego down to his knees quick. May cost you your job, but what the ell, you don't like working for the guy anyway right? you don�t even know how often i imagine that but not before I find the another job - it�s not so easy, not even in Prague anymore. so first another job and then kicking

if you need money, you are pretty much slave to the conditions the employers dictate,,,however hey dictate them at least , that's been my experience just focus on the upcoming paycheck , and if its bad enough, work on getting your own promotion to get from underneath that individual If the boss is that short, then perhaps he is underneath her. yes, he is underneath me but unfortunately msharmony�s right, i�m looking for a new job now, pray me luck. he knows very well, with the life costs and lower income from the main job that i have to have three other jobs to live normaly though modestly on my own. One of those jobs is cleaning our offices for the lowest wage. and he presents it as his help to me. That I should be grateful for that

I tender my resignation.
Since I was hired for my abilities and expertise, if suddenly The Boss had a Napoleon complex, my services aren't needed [anymore], otherwise he'd/she'd be doing my job him/herself.  |

I work for an ex military, when he says jump you are supposed to say how high, not put it where the sun doesn't shine. He screams and yells at everybody else except me. I have an evil twin and invented her just for work, comes in very handy. As long as you are polite and follow protocol there is nothing they can do. Also never have closed door meetings, always make sure you have witnesses

I look for what, I can learn from them and if possible improve on my past skills.
