Some Advice Please

Hello,



I just received the following message and wondered if you have any advise for the lady in question:



''Can any ladies here give me some hints on how to deal with a bias male boss who favours a less competent male colleague and always make a joke out of me ?''



Kind regards,

  • I would also suggest asking a trusted colleague for their opinion if they are in the proximity during any of these incidents. The tendency once you get into a certain mindset is to over analyse everything, so a second opinion would help.



    I also agree that it is a good idea to try and bring specific points up with your boss if you can. Its a worthwhile starting point to see if things can change. The problem is if you go higher up the chain, there is a risk that you would no longer feel comfortable working in your current position.
