2 You're working furiously to finish a task when a shadow falls across your desk. It's the boss, checking on your progress. Before you can say anything, he's slipped behind you. Now he's reading over your shoulder and matching your proposed figures to his budget.

You feel like screaming.

Before you do, think about this: If you learn how to work with your micromanager, you'll be more likely to achieve your goals.

Filing a complaint with the firm might seem tempting, but before you resort that, try to cope with the situation by learning how to manage your micromanager.

In a September 2004 study on micromanagement conducted by Harvard Business Review, Jim Goodnight, chief executive of SAS Institute in Cary, N.C., said employees shouldn't expect to be left alone until they've showed they can handle it. The path to independence is paved with outstanding performance.

"Employees who perform well earn the right to make decisions without having the CEO look over their shoulders," Goodnight said.
