Things don't always go smoothly at work.
But not only then is diplomacy required.
Experts reveal how you can score points with your superiors.
Sometimes things
don't go smoothly
with the
boss
.
No matter how hard you try, want to improve or try otherwise.
This can be
frustrating
and shouldn't become
permanent
.
But there are also other reasons why many
employees
want
more
recognition (or even more salary)
in their
jobs
.
One of them is very simple.
Those who feel
valued
and at
work *
are often much more
motivated
and therefore
more productive
.

But what if
nothing comes
from the
boss
in this direction?
Then you should know certainly that tab, you can drag to your
supervisor
with your
wishes
penetrate.
The
career coach
Juergen Hesse reveals to "Bild.de" as you score points at Chefs can - here are a few examples:
Do you want more praise from the boss
?
Then say
You don't: “Boss, I deserve at least a big praise from you for that…”, advises the expert, but rather: “What do you think of this success?
I had to work hard for that. ”The explanation is quite simple: bosses often don't want to be told by their employees what they have to do and what not to do.
So whoever demands praise too obviously risks the other person feeling pressured or, in the worst case, even personally attacked.
On the other hand, if you ask open questions or proceed a little more subtly, the chances that the other person - in this case the boss - will respond to you.
Do you want to start your evening a little earlier?
Then you shouldn't say: “
Boss, I'm going to leave work early today, okay?” Is
another piece of advice.
The expert reveals how things can be improved on Bild.de.
For example like this:
“Today I unfortunately have to attend a very important personal appointment and I'm going a little ahead of time.” The psychology behind it: If you do this and also give a good reason, you don't risk the boss saying no.
Just give it a try.
Do you want a raise?
Even then, you should carefully consider how you prepare your supervisor for this.
Instead of saying that you
want
more money
, according to the career coach, you could do it better like this: "Can we please make an appointment to talk about my area of responsibility and recent success?" This sentence works best in advance, so the tip.
The appointment itself should then be at least three days later, so the advice - so that the boss can prepare accordingly.

Job tip: Pay attention to your body language
The portal Karrierbibel.de also advises you to
pay attention to your body language at work
.
Also to the
boss
, and also if you should be dissatisfied at work.
Because
facial expressions and gestures
reveal what is really going on in us.
You should
n't avoid your boss's gaze
.
And don't speak with a choked voice or assume a slumped posture, say the experts.
That is a mistake, because: "This is how you convey that you feel guilty or that you do not believe that your arguments are justified." The tip: Better keep eye contact, sit upright and make sure you have an "open and friendly facial expression".
