Up For Discussion: No Chemistry With New Boss

boss.jpg A new feature bringing you highlights from the mediabistro.com discussion boards. This week:

Sag1217: "I started a job about 2 weeks ago and from the first day I could tell that I didn't quite 'click' with my boss professionally. Any suggestions on how to combat this? We just don't seem to 'get' each other."

mailbag: "My opinion since you are new — is that you can get away with asking a lot of questions. I think there are other ways for you to pick up her style than asking directly. You and the manager are reaching for the same goal, so ask for a sit-down meeting or go to lunch together outside of the office. You want to succeed — what are her suggestions to keep you on that track? And, what are her expectations of you?"
