[quote=Anonymous]My boss, CEO of a nonprofit organization, has strongly held opinions about fundraising, marketing and communications. Unfortunately, this is her first CEO gig and she has no previous work experience in these areas. So, for example, she is passionately devoted to our organization "launching" a walkathon as a major part of our fundraising strategy, though we are in no way structured to do so. She is the most stubborn person I've ever met and will not accept the counsel of her senior staff who have expertise in these areas. She's pretty new to the job, but I report directly to her, so every day is an interesting new batch of craziness. I loved working here until our Board hired her. I'm struggling with whether to try to wait it out and hope she gets canned, or to try to figure out a way to "manage up" and improve things. Any advice on how to deal with her? It is extremely frustrating.[/quote]
