Mentoring with Mitch – Episode 5: Waiting on the World to Change

Posted June 18, 2021

In this episode of Mentoring with Mitch, I offer some ideas on how to deal with one of the most difficult situations you’ll encounter in your career – the inappropriate behaviour of your boss.

Here’s the question:

“When your organisation indicates there is an important inclusion and diversity initiative but a senior leader that is great at ‘managing up’ is not supporting this with their insensitive style, in fact from the ground up is the cause of a larger than expected staff turnover, is there anything you can do to effect change?”

So if you’re not interested in “Waiting on the World to Change”, I overview 3 options of dealing with it:

  • Escalating
  • Escaping
  • Embracing

We’ll then go through 3 tried and tested steps on how to deal with the issue with the understanding that by not “moving towards the tension” things can only get worse.

Enjoy the video.

SUBMIT A QUESTION

Due to the many requests I get for support of all types, this year we are introducing “Mentoring with Mitch”. Every fortnight, I’ll be fielding specific questions from leaders like yourself and posting the answers as videos. If it relates to management, any facet of leadership, teamwork, engagement, leading at home or in the community, we want to hear it from you.
