How should I handle a situation where my boss came into the organization from another organization and has no background in our organization’s culture, work processes, or policies? They are often frustrated with the state of affairs, and I’m constantly explaining why things are the way they are and that these issues are organizational problems. This results in them thinking that I’m not open to change or critical of their approach. This question is related to the episode The Power Of Possible - Kat Cole | The Knowledge Project 117 and the clip Leading Former Peers.
How should I approach my relationship with one manager at work who rarely gives me the space to explain and often asserts herself in the middle of presentations, as discussed in the episode The Power Of Possible - Kat Cole | The Knowledge Project 117 and the clip Leading Former Peers? I'm going to change how I've been acting—I'm just an intern, but it's not obvious; everyone else loves me, and I love them. She has a different approach, and while it's useful in some ways, it's also frustrating. I'm proud that I recognize I need to adjust to her behavior. Will changing my approach help her loosen her resistance too?
