'Having a problem with the boss (Part II)'
By Josie O. Santamaria

Contributor

MANILA, Philippines—I read with great interest your advice to Mr. Confused in your column on Sunday, May 9, 2010 page M2 encouraging him to build a positive relationship with his department manager despite the latter’s actions and reactions against him. The reason for my interest in reading your advice is because I’m in the same predicament as Mr. Confused. My supervisor (I’m just a rank-and-file) ignores me. Even during meetings when I would raise my hand to express my opinion or idea, he would not even call me at all. This has caused me to be embarrassed. I don’t participate anymore in our meetings. I just do my work the best way I can and just leave him alone.

Shouldn’t a supervisor be the one to develop a good relationship with his subordinates so that they will be motivated and productive? It’s unfair that we subordinates should be the one to “dance to the music” (to quote you) just because he is the boss. I’m also confused about the role of a boss.
