Workplace and Professional Etiquette: How does one deal with a boss with a superiority complex?

[Simpley]

A boss that has a superiority complex would remind at any slight mistake that you are under him and has authority over you, so dealing with such boss may be difficult. I think the way out is just to know your place, you already know your roles so complete your tasks diligently and stay in your lane.

In such a case, get use to that boss and understand him or her. You know your payment and stay at work is under the mercies of that boss. Hence, do not retaliate to whatever harsh words and behavior he or she does. Preferably, you complain in a gentle manner.

 

[Setho]

It is really not a good trait that as a boss you are known with such characteristics. You should always be friendly and willing to learn. To deal with a superior complexed boss you should always be spot on with your job, you should set boundaries between you two and try to only say the things which are necessary at that time. Depending on relationship, you can talk calmly to him.

The best way for someone to deal with a boss with superiority complex is by having patients and also going accordingly to the rules and regulation of the company

The most immediate answer for some contentions in the labor force is to speak transparently about concerns and assumptions. To have a sound working relationship, you need to understand what your chief (and your colleagues) anticipate from you, and they need to understand what you anticipate from them. I further suggest keeping away from accuse language. "You've treated me impolitely" may put your supervisor on edge, while "I sense that I am not regarded" will voice the issue without setting fault. Keep in mind, your supervisor has to understand what you need to perform. This incorporates devices and supplies, yet additionally social-feelings.

If a boss is acting like this, you just have to overlook such and focus on your own duty in the company... Meanwhile make sure you do not step beyond your boundaries.

I'll try to dialogue with my supervisor to explain how I feel, but if it is more than I can handle because I've heard about very nasty superiors I may be forced to resign

well, everyone should expect this. You can't outshine your boss even if he doesn't have superiority complex, so just perform your duties and overlook.

I think the best way to go about this kind of boss,is to always keep to his or her order,don't try to please him or her in anyway. Once he or she give you an assignment on what to do s he or she instructed,try as much as possible to do it the way he or she want it. If you keep doing all that I don't think you will be having issue with your boss I guess.

Most people would quit the job and find a better offer but another method is to avoid such person completely so as to avoid embarrassment, perform task on time and be punctual, that way the management would give you a say and you can bring up the issue.

Having a boss with superiority complex might not be a good thing at work. Bosses who suffers superiority complex are always difficult to satisfy no matter your efforts that you put in place at work. To deal with bosses with superiority complex, all you need is patience and obedience at work.

It is not everything you see in your work place you speak about. There are thing you just let go of in your work place for the sake of peace to avert strife

As long you one doesn't have any alternative job, it is very important for one to learn how to tolerate one boss. In the other way, all the employees can agree together and forward a report to the particular boss. This is better than having an individual confrontation.

Sometimes no matter how you tolerate your some bosses they will still frustrate your life just because you work under them. If the superiority complex is affecting your health and mental wellness, it is good to leave his business for him and resign.

 

[MercySmith]

You have to accept that your boss is superior to you. It's not about superiority complex. You should do what he ask you to do as long as he remains you boss

 

[GIFTMICHAEL]

Their is nowhere you won't see jealousy and pride in the world. Even in the family you came from, their is pride there too. Superiority complex is displayed by a pompous manager, such kind of trait should be kept internal and not showing it up, it puts division in a company's workplace. Makes employees not to work from their minds, give their all to the company. Because they're working with divided feelings and feeling uncomfortable cos if the indifferent act of the manager.

 

[Patrik]

if you think about it, the boss has to always stay superior than the normal employees, i'm not saying he should be bossy and not friendly, but everything has to stay professional in a working environment

 

[Sariana23]

Hmm.... its not easy as we think, being treated because of inferiority complex the incorporated devices and supplies the additionally social feelings.. You have to be humble to the call so that the superiority will be suppressed.

Excellent comment " You have to be humble with the call so that the superiority is repressed" It is one of the best opinions, in my country it is used a lot "the soft word takes away the anger" as long as we keep a low profile everything will work better. If we behave at the level of other haughty people things end badly.

Honestly, I don't really care about what or how my boss behaves when it comes to my workplace but the most important thing for me there in the office is to do my job and get paid when I'm supposed to be paid. His or her feelings doesn't mean anything to me at all.

 

[Ayokex]

To deal with a boss with superiority complex is not a hard thing to do. What the fellow should do is to be almost right at all times. Don't be late to work, make sure you don't cross your boundary. Be polite, deligent and respectful. He may change if not posessed.

Dealing with a boss that is too bossy requires wisdom. I think it's not something an individual can address. As an employee, it will be very absurd to walk up to your boss and make some corrections and this can be achieved by collective efforts of the whole employees.

A boss at work will always act like a boss , and most of them always have that superiority complex, while some just pretend to have in order for you not to disrespect them, all you have to do is just give them their due respect.
