[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don’t you want the manager to know?

A good manager will take feedback to heart and try to improve.[/quote]

I want to respect the employee's wishes. She feels he doesn't like her. He doesn't greet her unless she greets him first. She has an overall feeling he's condescending and ignores her. The manager is close to the other team members, so she probably feels left out. She didn't say this, but it's obvious. She IS social and does talk to many people, even other teams. It's impressive how many friends she made in such little time. The manager she is complaining about is awkward. [/quote]

PP here - thanks for the context.

Unless the manager is impeding her growth or ability to learn/advance, or is actively sabotaging her, then it shouldn’t be an issue.  I mean, maybe he doesn’t like her - it happens.  (I think it’s unprofessional for him to show this, but alas.)  She should just focus on doing her job.[/quote]

I disagree with this. The manager should make an effort to include her. Ignoring her? Never greeting her? Those are essential skills a manager should have. [/quote]
