　　How to Argue with Your Boss

　　Before you argue with your boss， check with the bosss secretary to determine his mood. If he ate nails for breakfast， it is not a good idea to ask him for something. Even without the bosss secretary， they are keys to timing: dont approach the boss when hes on deadline; dont go in right before lunch， when he is apt to be distracted and rushed; dont go in just before or after he has taken a vacation.

　　If youre mad， that will only make your boss mad. Calm down first. And dont let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration. The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind. Then， maybe he will dismiss you.

　　Terrible disputes can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what is the problem the other wants to discuss. Sometimes the fight will go away when the issues are made clear. The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understand it.

　　Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more. If you cant put forward an immediate solution， at least suggest how to approach the problem. People who frequently present problems without solutions to their bosses may soon find they cant get past the secretary.

　　To deal effectively with a boss， its important to consider his goals and pressures. If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss， then he will be naturally more inclined to work with you to achieve your goals.
