During his 33 years at Weyerhaeuser, Dennis Knutz
has had a lot of time to think about managing bosses. Based on
his experience, he developed a few rules for building a solid
relationship with the people in the corner office.
Your relationship with your boss is built on
shared values, goals, and performance. some bosses are open
books; others inscrutable. No matter. It is up to you to
learn as much about your manager as you can, in order to make the
most of your working relationship.
