Do These Things When Your Boss Leaves The Company
It’s tough to lose a good boss–but it’s not the end of the world.
1. DON’T PANIC
There’s something naturally unsettling about change, and losing a boss no doubt falls into that category. Throw in an absent replacement, and it’s an unquestionable recipe for self-doubt.
But rather than let yourself fall victim to it, convince yourself not to panic–because there’s really no need to. Sure, you might end up with an ogre of a boss who makes your life miserable, but there’s no reason to assume that will happen. Similarly, losing your boss doesn’t mean your job is now on the line. Quite the contrary: You might find that you’re even more valuable now that your manager has moved on.
