| Thank you for this detailed answer.
On to the next stage: > I invited him for a conversation Why was this contact made? What's his connection to your team, ie. how important is his input to your team? > I spoke with some people in the company I already felt like I could trust Possible scenario: Chances are that these coworkers are also close to 'that' manager, and talked about it to other coworkers, which eventually resulting into 'that' manager heard that you talked about him. -> Source of hate? I, myself, would do one of the following options 1. Make your sprint/monthly goals clear to the CEO and at the end deliver 2. Start looking for other opportunities. Since you were well liked in your previous positions, it may be easier to get references. Hidden option: Look really hard at yourself. Are there unconscious behaviours of you that may cause dislike?
Try to apologize to 'that' manager for tiny and unnoteworthy mistakes, he just sounds like a ... who needs more love. |
