Bosses often hide their dislike of employees behind professional coolness.
But small, seemingly harmless details still reveal how you are in his favor.
Often it is just a queasy feeling that tells us: something is wrong.
In most cases, he does not have to say openly whether the supervisor likes us or not.
Often, even small interpersonal signals reveal that our standing is bad.
Of course, the boss doesn't have to become a best friend right away.
But if you want to achieve something in the team and in the company *, you also need the necessary tailwind from the management level.
BusinessInsider magazine spoke to career experts who know exactly how managers behave towards unwelcome employees.
These three signs are part of it:
1. Your boss doesn't ask for your opinion
Your boss is constantly making decisions that affect your area of responsibility without asking for your opinion?
Then this can indicate that you are not valued.
True to the motto: "I really don't care what you think!"

2. Your supervisor is constantly monitoring you - and only you
Micromanagers find it difficult to give up tasks and delegate them to others.
And if you do, keep an eye on your employees.
Look familiar to you?
If all teammates are affected, it is probably just bad leadership.
If only you are controlled by the boss - then
he probably doesn't trust you
.
"In some cases, this can even lead to mild bullying behavior, with the boss being so busy monitoring your every move that it feels like intimidation," reveals career expert Lynn Taylor.
3. Your boss is avoiding you
You're waiting for the elevator, but your boss prefers to take the stairs - even though the office is on the 8th floor.
He also avoids sitting with them in the canteen.
Does that sound familiar to you?
If your manager is
obviously
avoiding you
, he or she probably doesn't like you.

Conclusion: It is better to seek an open conversation
However, you have to be clear about one thing: The signs mentioned can indicate a bad relationship with the boss - but they don't have to.
Superiors also have bad days and often convey things in stressful phases that their team members can easily misunderstand.
Often a
clarifying conversation
helps to put an end to the queasy rumbling stomach.
