Episode notes

i spoke to my manager in our check ends, and she is observing the behavior as well. So i had a conversation with him and explained some of the behaviours that i was seeing. He said he doesn't think he realy means to be missogonist, and i don't want it. But when things get distressful, i just slip back into the old behaviour. What i am encouraged by is that there was some change in behaviour from him after that. Check out women amplified, wherever you listen to podcasts.

Lynne has a colleague in a different department whose work is interdependent with hers, and he’s been surreptitiously encroaching on the scope of her role. He’s also been criticizing her behind her back. During their regular one-on-one meetings, he says everything’s fine, and he never mentions the work he’s doing that falls outside of his responsibilities.

When she raised these issues to him, he changed the subject. Lynne worries that the ongoing bad-mouthing and overstepping are damaging her reputation. What should she do? What should you do if you find yourself in a similar situation?

In this episode, Amy G talks with Lynne and recommends tactics for her to try. By the end of the episode, Lynne has a clear way forward and knows what she needs to do to improve her working relationship and protect her career.
