Cope with Your Incompetent Boss


Cope with Your Incompetent Boss
Everyone complains about his or her boss from time to time. But dealing with a truly incompetent boss is frustrating and exhausting. Here are three strategies to handle the situation:
  • Have empathy. Resist the temptation to demonize, and try to see things from your boss's perspective. Perhaps she is under extreme pressure from her superior. Or, maybe he is still learning the skills to do his job.
  • Create boundaries. Don't let the circumstances get you down. Put up psychological limits so that your boss's incompetence doesn't negatively impact your health 
    or well-being.
  • Move on. When all else fails, consider looking for a transfer to a new boss or a new employer. Don't 
    suffer needlessly.
