Abstract
There is nothing more important than an employee''s relationship with her boss. Numerous studies reveal that it is the linchpin of great performance, long-term commitment, and employee satisfaction at all levels of the organization. But although most hiring managers will look at the personality fit between themselves and the job candidates, few prospective employees give this much consideration - often to their regret if they discover later on that they and their supervisors are mismatched. There are ways for job candidates to hedge against this fate, says Rich Wellins, whose work focuses on helping companies put the right people in the right seats. His advice about how to initiate frank discussions with prospective supervisors--and how to get telltale glimpses into their personalities - is as relevant to considering a new internal assignment as it is to interviewing for a position in a different company.
