It can be difficult for subordinates to accept a boss' promotion. It's important to be open to the possibility of change and to accept it. After that, you need to be able to communicate your feelings and agree with your subordinate. Fortunately, there are a number of ways to approach the situation.
Speak up
Speak out if you feel treated unfairly. Refusing to speak up can lead to a loss of your job and a damage to your reputation. If you aren't vocal about your opinions, you could be undermining yourself and your contributions. This leaves the possibility of assumptions being made about your thoughts and feelings and may result in the company not taking your suggestion into consideration. But speaking up isn't an easy task. It is crucial to evaluate your circumstances before speaking out.
When you notice a mistake being made by your boss, speak up. Your influence and reputation will grow and you will be more valuable to your colleagues if you speak up. Glassdoor research shows that employees who speak out are more likely than those who don't to be heard to be promoted. Don't be afraid to speak up, but it's not necessary for all situations. Employees who are constantly speaking up may become frustrated with their colleagues.
A subordinate should be able to get along
Learning how to communicate effectively is one way to improve your working relationships with your boss. Text messages are a popular means of communication these days. Phone calls can be used to express your needs and concerns. Even if you are unable to meet face-to-face, it is important that you communicate your needs and concerns politely.
