This course is not about creating a better filing system or honing your note taking skills, it’s about understanding the value of the relationship you have with your boss, often described as ‘a mutually dependent existence between two fallible individuals.’ You depend on your boss for direction, feedback and support, while your boss depends on you for new ideas, hard work and cooperation to achieve the organisation’s goals. Both sides have needs, and both sides have something to offer. It is a critical relationship worth tending to.
