Everyone has their own shortcomings. As the saying goes, "No one is perfect". These shortcomings will be reflected in daily life and will inevitably appear in the workplace. Especially for newcomers in the workplace, if there are mistakes in handling things , that is a normal thing, but as a leader, you must not indulge your subordinates to make mistakes, so the criticism of the leader is inevitable. People are floating in the workplace, how can they not be criticized. I like to be praised, but I don’t like to criticize. I believe that people share the same heart, but frankly speaking, it is your luck to meet a boss who works for you and criticizes you if you don’t do well. Don’t think that your boss is a good boss if you don’t criticize you. Everyone gets together because of the common goal—completing company performance or tasks. Your boss criticizes you because you are an employee who can be saved. If your boss doesn’t criticize you at all, If you hand over the work to other colleagues, then you may be waiting for you to have a heart-to-heart talk with the HR department. So, when it comes to boss criticism, no matter the reason, whether the boss is emotional or fact-based, you may want to keep the following points in mind:

  1. If you are in a stable mood, don't be in a hurry to defend yourself, don't have a resistance mentality, first listen to the content of your boss's criticism? Whether he is telling the truth or venting his emotions, in any case, don’t talk back in public, and don’t rush up in anger. It’s a very stupid act to confront your boss in front of you. In the end, you will not be able to step down, and you will also let your boss not be able to step down. Even if you feel that you have done nothing wrong, don't be in a hurry to defend yourself. If you always want to argue with your boss, it will give your boss a "criticism" effect and lower your impression of you.

  2. You can't ignore your boss. If you seem to be indifferent and go your own way, your boss will feel that you ignore your words, feel that your face has been lost, feel annoyed, and have more opinions on you.

  3. If there is, change it, if not, add encouragement. Criticizing subordinates is one of the job responsibilities of your boss, and your boss has more responsibility than you. It is inevitable to make mistakes in work. When leaders criticize, they should accept criticism and actively correct them, and have the courage to bear the adverse consequences caused by mistakes. If you are humble and responsible, many leaders are willing to help you fix it. You must learn your own lesson and correct it immediately. If the boss is emotionally out of control, it is understandable, the boss is also a human being, and everyone chooses to forgive when they lose their way. Don’t hold grudges against your boss for this. Although you will definitely feel unhappy when you are criticized, don’t turn your unhappiness and dissatisfaction into grudges, because if you cleanse your boss’s grudges, it will inevitably flow out from your own words and deeds, which will bring trouble to yourself. .

  4. Don't take criticism too seriously. When you are under a lot of psychological pressure, you can talk to family members and couples to reduce stress, commonly known as dumping garbage, but remember not to complain to colleagues and spread negative remarks.
