5 Tips to Deal With a Passive-Aggressive Boss
4. Don’t let them feel you are a pushover
Do not appear to be weak in front of your boss who has an aggressive behavior and who tries to break your spirit of working with dedication. Always look confident, even if you are a little weak from within, do not show your weakness outside. You have to work with patience in such a situation and try to maintain your calm as far as possible. If you lose confidence your boss will further try to pull you down and demotivate you. All this will affect your work and mental health.
5. Take a stand and get authorities involved
If you have tried all possible ways to deal with your boss’s aggressive behavior and yet haven’t seen any improvements from his end, then take a stand, if possible take help of other co-employees to support you and file a complaint in the HR department and see what can be done. If even this doesn’t work and you are really helpless, then consider changing your job. Sometimes there is only so much you can do.
