Abstract: | Middle managers can highlight their own achievements by involving the boss to his advantage. Seven steps in a communication process are prescribed: 1. introduce the situation, seek a legitimate reason to inform the boss; 2. give background information, and trace the events that led up to success; 3. tell about the success, first giving credit to others that have helped and then, secondly, factually state what you have been able to accomplish; 4. discuss any negative consequences of the success indicating the best policy to follow; 5. itemise the positive results of the success; 6. give credit for the success to your boss; 7. thank your boss for making the success possible. |
