Have anyone ever experienced male bosses assuming the absolute worst of you for no reason? I asked for more ownership on a project where the client only selected my solo ideas to move forward and got accused of being uncollaborative and trying to remove credit from the other team. He changed his tune once he realized I just wanted to lead and was happy to have the other team support. But really made me wonder why he jumped to that conclusion immediately, it’s making me nervous to lead on this.

Before jumping to the conclusion that your boss assumes the worst, make sure that you are communicating effectively. Spend time with your boss and try to understand his communication style and how he best receives information. It could simply be miscommunication.

I did communicate effectively. I asked to meet for clarification on roles and responsibilities moving forward on the project. I don’t know how that got misconstrued.

I realized a slow pace at work is really bad for me. A couple years ago I was experiencing burn out from my fast paced job supporting transactions, and believed by moving to a slower job in a lower cost area, I would be sailing off to the sunset. Wrong, I spend weeks following up with other teams, often times they forgot what we discussed, so I spent 50% if the time reminding them of the topics and next steps. I spend most of my time writing memos no one will read.

I’m 40 and recently transitioned to UX/Product Design. I completed a bootcamp, continue to improve my skills. I network, have coffee chats, attend virtual events, iterated my portfolio and resume. Everyone that I’ve spoken too so far say that I’m doing everything right and that my non-traditional background is an advantage. So why am I still unemployed? The few interviews that I have had, feedback has been I don’t have enough experience. I’m at a loss!

Hi all! After graduating with my MBA with a focus in project management, I moved organizations to go from an EMR education manager to a full time project manager specializing in EMR implementation projects. I’ve found that although I enjoy the work- changing organizations and roles in a remote world was harder than I anticipated. I want to be great at my job and I think connecting with others that have gone through similar things could help.
