Recent studies have shown that efficient managers not only spend time and energy to manage the same relationship with the affordable, but also spare no effort in management with the same relationship. The "Manage Your Boss" mentioned in this article refers to the best results to give themselves, boss and the entire company to work together and consciously cooperate with superiors. In the enterprise, the phenomenon of misreading the boss - subordinate relationship is not fresh. On the one hand, some managers feel that the boss does not necessarily depend on yourself, or if you don't rely on the boss, it doesn't realize that both parties need mutual assistance and cooperation to complete their work. On the other hand, more managers want to identify what kind of information or help you need to know the mysterious boss, and the boss will take the initiative to provide this information and help. As everyone knows, most of the boss is the same as each of us, it is impossible to do not know, it is omnipotent. The boss did not use the time, there is no extraordinary knowledge, and there is no extraordinary insight. They will also have their own pressure and worry. The relationship between the boss and the subordinates is actually the interdependence between the two inevitable ordinary people.

For example, for the "listening" boss who likes to let the subordinates to report information in order to ask questions, you will report to him, then submit a memo; and encounter a "reading" boss who likes to obtain information in written reports. You will first put important things in a memo or report, then discuss them again. Efficient managers can always find some direct or indirect approaches to find out the expectations of the boss, communicate the information (including bad news) that the boss needs to be understood, so that the boss relies yourself. Some managers will feel that their other duties are enough, and they have to spend time and effort to manage the relationship with the boss, it is a little too much.
