Polyamorous Every DayJun 24, 2025
Got a new boss this month. Yesterday we had our first meeting just them and me. This to get to know each other (they are doing this with all my colleagues too).
The first question was "Who are you?" And I am sooo lucky to have a workplace where I can start with "I am a polyamorous, queer person..." and those are good things that people also understands đź’–
It was a lovely meeting and I look forward to se how my relationship with this boss develops.

When Your New Boss Won’t Stop Making Hasty Decisions

It’s normal to feel unsettled when you get a new boss, and it can be especially disorienting if they come in and start making decisions that don’t seem to make sense. What should you do if you’re in this situation? Should you speak up or just take their new suggestions in stride? Start by assuming good intentions and take an active role in helping your boss understand the nuances of how the organization operates. Ask tactful, open-ended questions to gain clarity on your boss’s reasoning, and be diplomatic and constructive when expressing reservations. Frame your feedback as a way to achieve shared goals. It can also be helpful to talk with your colleagues about the benefits and drawbacks of your boss’s decisions. It’s an opportunity to gauge your team’s perspective and serve as “a gut check” to determine if others share your concerns.

Wow, what a week. I got an unexpected promotion to manage my Customer Success team on Monday. My former boss had unexpectedly exited the company. I've been trying to pick up all of the pieces and keep things chugging along. I hadn't realized most of my team were not pleased with their managing style and have been getting burnt out as a result. So, I have a lot of work to do to try to turn things around. It's my first time with direct reports, so wish me luck! #newboss #management

Position to be my boss is open as of today!

Currently clearing out my mental inventory of gripes with old boss to make room for quirks and foibles of new boss (tba someday).
