Go To Manager Irritated by the Reality of Constant Questions
I just realized that I have an issue with my Team Lead. I loved her laughter and sunny irreverence the first few weeks. But now I'm asking for guidance and being met with a stormy face and kicking the can down the road. I'm not thrilled about not getting my work done properly. I'm even less thrilled with being blamed if deadlines are not met.
I've tried approaching with a smile, with a gentle tone, with seriousness. Nothing has really shifted the dynamic. Does anyone have suggestions on how to smoolth things over with a Lead who has structured herself as the go-to person, then gets irritated when I repeatedly go to her throughout the day?
