Being a leader, not a boss
Humans, unlike robots, have feelings and limits. As a decent human being, learn to be a leader instead of being a boss.
Giving your boss some space
In some cases, even our bosses need space for some reasons.
Knowing your worth
Professionalism is always demanded at work, but still, KNOW YOUR WORTH. If you feel like something is really wrong with your boss’ treatment, you may talk to your boss’ boss about the issue.
Different working styles
One way to deal with a stressful boss is to know his working style. Well, this is because different working styles are associated with different struggles; knowing the boss’ working style might help us understand his struggles and also, the reason why he acts that way.
The purpose of pain
Every pain has a purpose. Maaaring hindi mo naiintindihan ngayon kung bakit kailangan mo ‘yang pagdaanan, but someday, you will.
Doing your work perfectly
When you do every little thing perfectly, you give your boss fewer opportunities to question your work.
There is growth in experience
Every experience (whether good or bad) will always teach us something, and take that as a token of growth!
Empathy
You need to be emphatic enough in dealing with a stressful boss because that kind of boss usually loves feeling things in whatever they are doing.
Knowing your boss' working style
One thing that you should never forget in dealing with a stressful boss:
KNOW HIS WORKING STYLE.
A world outside work
There is a much bigger world outside work. Do not let your world revolve around your work alone. Remember that you have a life to live!
