No matter who you are, you've got to report to some sort of boss. It's inevitable. Love it, hate it, or anywhere in between, we all have to serve somebody.
Whether you're a CEO accountable to a board of directors, a CIO under the lock and key of your CFO or a newbie service-tech reporting to an IT manager, you've got to form a healthy bond with the boss if you desire some control over your career. That means understanding your manager's expectations of you (even if he's not clear on them), managing said expectations, communicating effectively with him and even finding ways to cope with his quirky tics that drive you mad.

In these categories, which are listed and described below, you'll find resources on how to read your supervisor's facial expressions, how to say no to the boss and how to tell you're about to get fired.
