Resolving Conflict When: Your Boss Doesn't Notice Your Contributions

You spend days on a project, expecting your boss will praise you for your hard work and dedication, yet you hear nothing. Or worse, your boss dismisses the work you’ve done and focuses on how your performance has declined in some other area. How do you prevent this from happening? Simply speak with your boss periodically and ask for feedback. This Resolving Conflict When: Your Boss Doesn't Notice Your Contributions video walks you through having a discussion with your boss in order to draw out feedback and get on the same page when it comes to job expectations.

This course is part of the “Resolving Conflict When...” series on workplace communication. Use the courses in this series to help solve specific workplace issues, whether you are a manager remediating a situation or an individual trying to deal with a problem. These short vignettes present common communication dilemmas in the workplace. Human Resource expert Hugh Murray shares communication strategies and tactics for navigating these situations.

Each vignette features narrative examples for employees to see the wrong and right way to handle a problem, and ends with a short assessment to measure learner comprehension. Each course also includes a leader guide and a downloadable “key points” document to help you remember the communication strategy. These courses make for great training on their own, or used as a series.
