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

[CeeJase]

Well when it comes to a situation like this, I think it us best to keep and maintain a strictly professional relationship with the superior, and you have to ensure you do your job or task diligently and effectively.

I don't really care about anything when it comes to how I deal with my employer because don't let them I owe them is to work professionally for them and not create any kind of relationship with them.

A boss or manager with superiority complex is always difficult to handle so the best way to handle them is by staying out of trouble, trying to do your job diligently and effectively.

This type of boss gives significance to discipline, rather than performance, and is of the opinion that employees should be self-disciplined. His motto is that with discipline, employees will eventually perform.

Even if you find such bosses to be lenient, you should not break the rules too often; and even if you do so, make sure that you don’t bring it to his notice. Show him respect him, and make him feel that he is the big boss and you will be able to go about your duties undisturbed.

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.

Exactly what is supposed to do. If you do your job the way that you are supposed to do when you are supposed to do them, I'm very sure that you won't have any problems.

Try one or more of these tips to find a common ground with your boss or at least be sensible until you find a new twist.

Make sure you're dealing with a "bad boss" ...

Identify your boss's motivation. ...

Don't let it affect your work. ...

One step further. ...

Set boundaries. ...

Stop assuming they know everything. ...

Act as a leader.

I actually don't understand why some people who employ other people to work for them will be acting like that because it is not going to be for the good of their business should they keep on doing that.

A bossy with superiority complex will never like anyone working on that in to confront his judgement. The only way to get along with such boss is to always show them things from their own perspective not yours.

When dealing with a boss with an inferiority complex , never try to confront or accuse their judgement openly and if you want to do that , only bring the case in front of them as an advise.

It is good to apply emotional intelligence when you are dealing with people like this. You will never want to create unnecessary drama for yourself when you are trying to correct them on something. the best strategy is to always go in direct when you want to approach such a person.

It also requires awareness to avoid them again in the future. Dealing with a superiority complex is possible. Learning to have more honest, open dialogue with other people and how to set and pursue more realistic goals can help.

The best way that you can actually work for this company without having any issue is to try as much as you can to stay away from where his superiority complex used to kick in.

 

[CeeJase]

The best you can do in such situations is to do want is expected of you at work and within the boundaries of the company policies. It may take a lot of humility to work with such types of bosses.

Personally I don't really think that you need to do much but rather to do your job when you were supposed to do it and go without looking into having a relationship with such boss.

 

[Sotherefore]

I don't really have the time , what I will do is that I will try as much as possible to concentrate on my area of employment. If they are not satisfied I will look for elsewhere to work.

 

[Shigobad2020]

Boss with inferiority complex are very difficult and hard to deal with and dealing with them , you need to be extra careful by avoiding them in any opportunity you find .

 

[Sotherefore]

For me I will not have any problem with such a person. I will always try as much as possible to take up the responsibility for which I was employed into the organisation to do. When you are dedicated to your responsibilities you will hardly have any problem with them.

In many business organisations, if you work for bosses, they will always have superiority complex. They always think that they are above the employees and therefore most of them treat them anyhow. Such a business venture is actually not good for your health and personal sanity.

 

[Smiles20]

It is not going to be easy for you to have that kind of boss and be working with but I think the most important thing is if he is paying you are treating you well because that is exactly what you are there for.

 

[Sotherefore]

This one might even be more easier than dealing with toxic business owner.. I believe the best way is just to concentrate in the main responsibilities for which you were employed into the business organisation , it will be very much easier this way.

I think it is very common to show a little bit of superiority when you become a boss. Almost all bosses have a superiority feeling, the only difference is some have a higher level of superiority complex and some have a lower level of superiority complex. The best way to deal with these people is just to do your work and avoid brushing your shoulder with these guys.
