Difficult bosses (and challenging co-workers) are—and always will be—an unfortunate fact of work life. As long as organizations continue to promote people based on technical skills rather than managerial acumen, we will have “bad bosses.” But one doesn’t have to let a difficult boss derail their career trajectory. Learning how to survive and even thrive with a difficult boss is easier than you think. You just need the right skills and sensibilities!

In this webcast, Mary Abbajay, author of the award-winning, bestselling Managing Up: How to Move Up, Win at Work, and Succeed With Any Type of Boss, will help you:

  • Navigate and succeed with the seven most difficult boss types (such as the Micromanager, the Ghost Boss, and the Impulsive).
  • Use proven strategies and techniques to take control of your career.
  • Understand the real dangers of working for a toxic boss.
