Dealing with awkward Manager

[PurpleCarpetsPlease]

We’ve a work meeting on Wednesday so the whole office will be in. I’m not looking forward to it as it means I’ll see our Manager face to face. On Teams can be bad enough especially when she’s rude and dismissive to me. I feel she doesn’t like me but I can’t think,of anything I’ve done to rub her up the wrong way.
How can I go into the office looking positive and not let her get to me?

Do your job? Maybe go into the office more so you get used to being around her?

Stick a smile on your face, be polite and professional, avoid her as much as you can without it being obvious.

@SoDoffYourHat Ive just been talking to my other half about it and he has said similar. I’ll certainly give it a go, thanks

The only answer is as per @SoDoffYourHat said, be professional, be polite, smile on your face. Be confident. If she does anything resembling a favour or courtesy, thank her. Kill her with kindness. If she says a negative thing, smile, pause and say, 'sorry I don't understand', let her say whatever, then say 'oh, thanks' and move on.

In your next one to one, say that you've been thinking it would be really good to strengthen your working relationship - is there anything she would like you to do or change that would help that?

Don't let her have power over you, chin up, take charge.

I speak as I had the experience of a rotten micro managing boss once. I did my best but in the end moved to a new job...bliss.

For me- prepare my outfit that day ahead of time. Go for the more smart end of my wardrobe that I feel more confident in. Prepare my talking points for the team meeting ahead of time. Arrive at the office slightly earlier than normal to feel on top of things. I think all that will help you relax and present a confident persona.

She may be better face to face. Teams can encourage ppl to be ruder than they would be f2f.
