Make Boss A Success—He May Make You One
Make your boss a success for
better career chances, suggests
management expert Donald L.
Wass.
“It’s a counter-intuitive idea,”
admitted the president of the
William Oncken Co. of Texas Inc.,
“but any other way etui cause
trouble.”
Wass’ suggestion is based on
the idea that the boss is the single
most important entity to a career
among a manager’s superiors,
peers and subordinates.
“The boss is judge and jury
over a career,” Wass told a man
agement seminar at A&M. “He
recommends promotions, reviews
salaries, gives raises and bonuses
and hands out credit. Therefore,
the appropriate strategy is to get
and hold the active support of
the boss.”
This is done by doing a job
well and seeeing that the boss
gets credit, claimed the business
executive of Dallas. He warned
that it doesn’t always happen
naturally.
Two techniques are available
to managers in carrying out
projects, Wass said. In one,
“when the smoke clears, you ap
pear the driving force and get a
gold star in your little black
book,” with the boss looking on.
The other features the boss as
the driving force, so that he gets
the star. The boss knows how
it comes about, Wass said. So
the latter course is the best,
simply because the boss can open
advancement doors with the least
fuss.
The recommended course is
nothing new, Wass said, citing a
Biblical example featuring Moses
and Joshua.
“It’s not boot-licking nor apple
polishing, but just doing a good
job and making sure that the
boss gets credit,” the psychologist
maintained. “An intra-company
political system, like sex, has its
pornographic side and its clean
side. It depends on one’s view.”
“When you make the boss a
success, only two things can hap
pen and both are good,” Wass
went on.
He can get promoted and re
member how he got there. If
another superior asks him how old
Joe Blow is doing, “he’s got to
render a positive judgment on
you,” Wass said. “That’s a plus.
But let’s say he gets promoted
out of the division and you can’t
go along.”
“That’s not good, considering
the effort you made,” Wass ob
served, “but it’s not bad, not a
minus. So you’re clean.”
There is no way a manager
attempt to undermine his
and have him render a
verdict, he added.
