Yeah, right. Micromanagers don’t want to hear any of your preferences. You have to adapt to only their preferences. There are no options. As a person who was supervised by many micromanagers, I have to adapt to their rigid styles. There’s no discussion.
You are doing an incredible job Ma'am, really really love the content you put out time and again:) you are very amazing and helpful and your videos likewise, Thank you so so much for doing what you do, lots and lots of love, support and appreciation from my side😁😄😃
I have a micro manager now. He walks in every day to give “ reminders “ that include “ don’t forget to take out your dirty linen before you leave “, “ don’t forget to plug in the monitor before you leave “, TG I have 5 weeks left in this horrid contract and I can leave this horrid place. He is a very new supervisor . He really needs to take some classes on how to supervise
Just got fired by one because I “don’t take direction well”. I got corrected on the “proper” way to tighten a bolt over 8 times. Just to please him I literally did his little bolt tightening ritual in front of him and apparently it still wasn’t right. He wanted me to hold the wrench at a certain angle and everything. Which btw it didn’t even matter how the bolt was tightened because you had to torque wrench it later. I literally lost brain cells having to hear that conversation more than once. And no worries I had another job offer that paid more before I chose this one anyway so I’m going there now. Only reason I went with this place first was because it was more in my field of study.
How do you deal with frantic managers who always need a quick response and don't have a filter? They're always all over the place and it makes it hard to focus.
That sounds like a struggle! Boundaries and clear communication would be key here. You can check out my article for more helpful tips! www.scienceofpeople.com/micromanager/
Sounds like a new manager. Personally I'm on the edge of a promotion and I find myself frantic. It's something I know I have to work on. I'm sure your boss knows too but is terrified of failure or starting off on the wrong foot to their superiors. Show them you can be trusted, have their back, and depend on you; they will calm down.
@@MKrealife Not new at all unfortunately. They just have an anxious leadership style paired with very unclear communication. Attempts to insert clarity don't help because they later change their mind.
These tips don’t help me :( bc my micromanager gets worse when you increase communication. She knit picks new things and trails off. It’s best when I say silent and just say ok and thank you. It’s a horrible work environment. Her micromanagement has been so draining 😭

I don’t want to share anything with them because it feels like they have been using that against me. I don’t feel comfortable sharing anything
Experiencing this now. My boss will ask about my personal life then try to throw it in my face conversation.

This has given me a clue on how to keep my job and my dignity
