Communication with an employer is an inevitable part of labor relations, to which most people devote the lion's share of their lives. Each job has its own procedures, but some general recommendations can be distinguished on the basis of which it is optimal to build interaction with the business owner or another first person of the company, and representatives of the employer of a lower rank.

Step 1
The first rule of competent communication with the employer (and not only) is politeness, politeness, and again politeness. A person who is disrespectful to others does not respect, first of all, himself and cannot claim the respect of others, even more so. Plus, whatever the situation, the one who is naughty first will always come out wrong in it. You can express your dissatisfaction, if necessary, and in a calm tone. And, by the way, it inflicts a "blow" on the opposite side much more tangible. But this does not cancel the right to point out to the boss the inadmissibility of the rudeness emanating from that, while remaining within the bounds of decency. If it doesn't help, isn't there a reason to look for another?
Step 2
No matter how democratic the corporate culture of a particular firm may be, subordination has always been, is and will be. It will be useful to listen carefully to the boss, and to pronounce your speeches strictly on the case will be useful everywhere. And in relation to colleagues who are in an equal position, and in many situations, even lower rank, it will not hurt.
Step 3
But being overly helpful won't do you any good. In a normal leader, outright toadying does not cause anything except irritation and a desire to quickly get rid of an employee who is prone to it. In addition, behind this quality is often insufficient competence: a professional, as a rule, is confident in himself, knows his price and claims the appropriate attitude. Even those who are inclined to surround themselves with sycophants, nothing but contempt for this "especially close" the public is not tested. Well, if the boss is noticed in such a "personnel policy", this is a signal that sooner or later he will have to part with him. The sooner the better. Until that happens, it should be remembered that the unwillingness to "obey" does not abolish discipline.
Step 4
Another important nuance that should never be forgotten: at work, people are expected so that they, pardon the tautology, work there. Informal communication in the smoking room often serves as a good motivating factor (that the leadership can be understood and used), and yet it is a side effect, so when communicating with the chef, it will not be superfluous to unobtrusively make it clear that at least that time a day. which you are supposed to think according to the work schedule, first of all, about work, you are busy with this. If you follow these simple rules, the likelihood of problems in the relationship with the employer is most often minimal.
