How do you deny a request to work under a new reporting boss whom you think isn’t competent enough to be your boss?
If it is the person who owns the company or is firmly embedded in the leadership—YOU change jobs.
But may I tell you in advance—the perfect boss rarely can be found and most employees all think they are smarter than their boss. I can tell you how you can still thrive in this situation—just do great work and trust me, someone will notice.
Excellence is always noticed.
