We had a new manager a year ago who is toxic. In our annual appriasals we have all put about the setbacks we have experienced. The manager said we should remove some of these things. Why should we, it was a set back.
I stated about a colleague in another team who sent managers an email on 2 occasions saying I had not done a task which involved an external agency when I had which was very stressful. Luckily other colleagues backed me up. The manager said he and another manager spoke to her about her conduct so it can be removed. I don't see why it should, I had done the task and had to spend a lot of time to resolve it with the external agency as they had been ignoring the emails due to staffing issues and it was stressful period.
Then another team are quite lazy passing their work to our team. I stated this has been ongoing for 2 and half years and 2 other managers told them to do their own work but soon as new people start they go back to their old ways. He said it needs to be changed and that we will still be doing their work.
He admitted he has no sector qualificatioms and no management qualification. Yet the rest of the team have sector qualifications. Another manager complained about him and he left as the organisation said they will not do anything about him. A colleague has put a grievance in against him and was told they just need to get along.
He told me in my appraisal I need to speak up more and yet on the 2 occasions I have he looks annoyed and outright dismisses your concerns. Other colleagues have experienced the same.
How do you deal with obstructive managers?
