Have you encountered an office situation where you have been asked by your boss but you were not able to do him a favor? He could be expecting you to render a rest day overtime but you didn�t come, there is a team building and you did not show up or you were asked not to be late but you were late again. It may seem awkward to approach him about anything on the following day after everything that has happened so making it up to your boss is necessary.
The above examples might give your boss a bad impression about you or think that you are not seeing him as a potential friend aside from being a manager. This is why it is important to think of ways on how you can make it up to him. This is a good way to change his thoughts about you. Here are the steps on how you can fill in the gap which has been recently created.
Wait for the right time
If you are not sure on how your boss will react, give it some time and wait for the right moment to talk to him. Some managers don�t feel like talking about something that they are frustrated about if the issue is still fresh. When you come into the office on the next day, walk straight to your desk and begin to working. Compose yourself and adjust to the atmosphere.
Get support
When you have worked enough and you already feel like talking about the matter, gain support from your colleague, a friend or a close team member of your boss. Explain why you were not able to do what you have been asked and gain sympathy from them. They might be able to help you on backing you up when your issue has been discussed in a meeting.
Heart to heart
After a meeting with your colleagues, remain inside the board room with your boss to talk about the matter. Apologize and speak the truth. Lies are very easy to see especially if you are not good in hiding it. Show that you did not intend to fail him and that if he will need something again, you�ll be the first in line to volunteer. Be sincere, be authentic, and most importantly, be professional.
Keep your promises
If your boss had asked about something that you need to do at work, make a realistic and attainable promise so that you can easily keep it. Show your commitment and start making conversation with him. While waiting for another favor, you can cook something for the team and give him a special serving.
Working is much enjoyable if you are in good terms with everyone especially with your manager. Never let a problem put a strain or create a huge gap in your relationships. Know the right timing, have the guts to approach and don�t be afraid to say sorry to make things a lot better.
