Why my manager likes me and why my manager doesn’t like me  - Blair McPherson

My manager likes my positive attitude, my enthusiasm and my creative approach to problem solving. My manager likes that I bring solutions not problems to our meetings. My manager appreciates being kept informed and an early warning when things aren’t going to plan. My manager recognises I do have insight into how my behaviour effects others. My manager is confident that I will deliver on what I have been asked to do. My manager knows they can rely on me. My manager values my knowledge and appreciates my contribution. 

My manager doesn’t like my lack of diplomacy. My manager finds my willingness to share my options sometimes ,”unhelpful”. My managers says I can be abrasive with colleagues and intolerant of those less able/committed than my self. My manager says I am some times too opinionated. My manager says most of the time I am right but there is a time and a place. 

My manager likes me but doesn’t like managing me.
