What if my boss is younger than me?

My boss is too young!

Some people have difficulties if their boss is younger - they feel their boss does not have enough experience or knowledge to effectively manage them.

Remember, your boss' job is to communicate with you, work with you and help you do your job well. If you feel he is handling something improperly, or not taking something into consideration, try to set yourself in the role of a "helpful employee". Do not tell him what he is doing wrong, but ask to discuss with him the situation in general. Present your insights into the matter in a proactive and helpful manner. You'll probably find that he'll appreciate your insight, and begin to look at you as a resource. His job, after all, is not to do your job. You should do your job, and his job is to help you.

If he's insecure about you offering suggestions, that's another tip ;)
