Having an unsupportive boss in any job can make your professional life more difficult. If you don’t feel supported at work, it can lead to feeling unappreciated, and that can impact your job performance. If you have a boss that doesn’t show support for you as an individual or for the team as a whole, it can be challenging.
To counter it, do your best to be supportive of your coworkers and to create a kinder workplace. It may also be time to seek out a new nursing job opportunity. Consider how a more understanding and compassionate boss would have a positive influence on not just your day to day work, but also on your nursing career as a whole.
