111. What to Do When You Don't Like Your Boss or Teacher


Listen Later

ALL relationships are hard. But the hardest ones are those we can't avoid, like at school and work. 

In this episode of the Learn and Work Smarter podcast, we dive into the reality that sometimes we don't like our boss or our teacher. Whether it's a personality clash or differences in communication, sometimes people just aren't compatible.

But what do we do when we don't like our boss or teacher? We can't avoid them or ignore them... that just makes things worse...so, again, what do we do?

Don't worry: I've got you covered with tips, strategies, and some sneaky little mindset hacks to tolerate those teachers and bosses you don't like. 

What You Learn:

  • Why identifying the specific thing that bothers you about your teacher or boss changes everything (most people skip this step)
  • The pattern recognition strategy that makes difficult authority relationships more manageable, even when you think they're being unreasonable (and even when you’re so obviously right)
  • How to protect your grades, job performance, and future options without compromising your values or losing your identity
  • The biggest mistakes people make when dealing with teachers or bosses they don't like (and why these tempting approaches backfire)
  • Practical tactics for getting through the really hard days when you REALLY can’t stand your teacher or boss
