Patrick Forsyth

A guide to managing your boss, and by creating a good working relationship, transforming your job and career prospects.

Like it or not, most of us work for someone, and our relationship with our boss plays a big part in our working life. But good relationships don't happen by accident. Knowing how to create and maintain them is vital. It can make all the difference to our job satisfaction - and our career prospects. Manage Your Boss is a step-by-step guide to developing a constructive and mutually beneficial way of working with your boss. It shows how you can:

• Make an impact
• Communicate effectively with senior people
• Secure agreement from your boss
• Deal with difficulties
• Get the most out of job appraisals.

If you can get your boss to take you seriously, give you a chance, and trust you, and if you reward their confidence with results, then the relationship will work. Your boss will be happy, you will have the chance to blossom, and together you will get the job done well. Creating the right relationship with your boss is critical to your future prospects and happiness.
