Have you ever had a manager that wasn’t qualified for the role he’s in? And leans on your POV and takes credit for your work? How did you handle it?

Oh yes, I am in that exact situation right now. The problem is I report directly to the CEO and he’s the one taking credit for my work. So, I’m pretty sure there’s nothing I can do about it.

Been here before as well. Some people are so starved for recognition & have such egos to do this. I very much dislike any sort of acknowledgment otherwise I’d have a huge problem with it. I just do my work sit back & wait for it all to unravel. When nobody is left the truth will be very apparent!

Found a different job and left.

I think it’s quite common. It’s sad, but I see it happen a lot. Unfortunately I don’t think I would do anything about it except for move on.

I had to deal with it luckily he got fired. I would not give him my pov unless there was someone else in the room. Kept my mouth shut event though I knew project was ending up in a disaster. Made it clear to folks that I was busy with other stuff and could not help .

We are looking to restructure our marketing team (B2B IT services) and one of the questions I have is: how does recruitment marketing / employer branding fit into the marketing team?
Over the last year EB and RM have become increasingly larger parts of our team’s work, but it’s not part of the marketing commercial targets (just helping recruitment meet their targets). Are they completely separate in your company? Or part of the team and if so how?

Currently trying to figure out how to create effective marketing strategies for people in the 60+ age group, any pointers from people who have done this before?
