If your boss constantly talks down to you, criticizes you, or makes you feel small, you don't have to just take it. In this episode, I share the phrases I would use to set boundaries, communicate with confidence, and handle difficult bosses without losing your professionalism—or your self-respect.

  • Who out there has a boss?

  • I'm not talking any kind of boss.

  • I mean the dirt, snake in the grass, rude, disrespectful, mean, critical, micromanaging, know-it-all boss.

  • If you have one of those.

  • This episode is for you.

  • Welcome to the Jefferson Fisher podcast.

  • Today, I'm kicking it in the truck today because I feel passionate about something, y'all,

  • and that is when you have people in your life that you are working

  • with or for, and they love to remind you that you work for them, you have a choice,

  • and that is whether or not you still work for this person.

  • You have a choice.

  • I'm going to give you some phrases

  • and we're going to deep dive into some strategies into this episode of how to handle the disrespectful boss.

  • What to say to them, what to think about it.

  • Here's what I want you to know first.

  • Number one, you have a choice of where you want to work, of who you want to work with or for.

  • And if you are the type of person that when push comes to shove and you're having a hard...

  • Confrontation and you're sitting in their office and they're seeing all these things

  • and being really, really critical, you have two choices.

  • One, you can just take it.
