followed. I don’t always agree with my boss but this is how it is.
RM So, what would you like to do?
BV I don’t know
RM I asked Susanna the same thing, she said herself she would like to resolve, she said your performance is good, highlighting areas that need improvement doesn’t mean she doesn’t think you are a good performer. I asked her what now, I sat with her a couple of days ago, and she is saying he is good. I asked if she could do a restart and work with him, she said she would. So I’m asking you, I would like to solve it, so what would you like to do, I’m not happy that you are at home, I’m not liking she is stressed, I would like to solve it. Question is, what would you like to do?
BV I don’t know. I was invited to go to a meeting to talk about and so I wanted to see what the possibilities are.
RM Okay I mean do you want to stay? I wouldn’t tell you she didn’t appreciate your performance if that wasn’t the case. At this point what would you like to do, she is your line manager, and obviously it may be a bit of a bumpy road as it is a relationship between people at the end of the day. I obviously can’t force you to stay or do anything you don’t want to do but I think you said you want to progress in the company. I’m more than happy for you to take the time, if you can restart the relationship knowing she is your line manager, if you feel there is any specific area that needs attention you can say that, if you think it can work, I mean if you don’t think it can work that’s a different scenario, as I said at the beginning where there is a will there is a way
BV Several issues there, I have had to wait too much time to think, the weather has not been good, I’ve been walking round the rock and thinking, I have several issues that influenced how I feel. There have been issues in the team since I started that caused the team to split into groups, one team trying to sabotage Susanna, I understand it put her in a difficult position, her against 4 team members who were very close, that problem is still ongoing today. With Yousari it’s still ongoing and Jose Luis, as long as those two share the same office (moved to VIP) that shit stirring will continue to go. Shouting between Susanna and Yousari in the kitchen, if that’s not stopped that’s my problem, what we are talking about is that you will be having the same conversation with other people or maybe they leave or go sick
SM You think she needs to be stronger?
BV No, I’ve lead a team before, I think physically move those people from that building to this one, so they don’t share the same kitchen etc. and talking bad everywhere. That’s one
