How to deal with a difficult boss

“Life is like a box of chocolates.  You never know what you’re gonna get.” — Forest Gump (1994)

Bosses come in all shapes and sizes – some good, some bad.  But what should you do if you encounter a difficult boss?  Come to September 26’s CPAC Professionals Day and attend this workshop:

How to Deal with a Difficult Boss                            

Speaker: Francis Lau

In this session, Francis will share his experience about identifying different management styles and personalities, explore effective communication strategies, and provide a 7-step process for managing a difficult boss.  Participants will be asked to share their experience and be given pointers on how to best maintain a productive relationship when there is conflict.
