When You and Your Upline Don't Mesh

In summary, having a good relationship with your upline is crucial as they serve as your mentor and support in your journey with the company. Signs that you may not mesh well with your upline include conflicts, lack of communication and support, and feeling undervalued. To improve the relationship, it's important to have open communication, listen actively, and show appreciation. If these efforts fail, seeking guidance from other leaders or exploring the possibility of switching uplines may be necessary. To maintain a positive attitude and work ethic, focus on your own goals and seek support from other sources if needed.

Hey, I'm at such a loss. I don't have anywhere to go to talk about this and found this community. I'm struggling with my upline director and I don't know what to do. I love the remainder of my upline team and Executive Director. And everyone downline on my team. But I just can't get along with her and struggle with this. I love absolutely everything about PC, but her. If it wasn't for this helping my family out so much and my team relying on me, I would quit tomorrow because of her. I know you can't change this. So, how did you handle this? I'm so frustrated and stressed out by her. Even my boss at my day job that I actually report to doesn't do this to me. I really don't know what to do and would love some help. Thank you.
 
What exactly is she doing? Too much interaction? Too demanding? What is bothering you? Maybe we can give better suggestions with a little more information.
 
Without knowing what she's doing it's hard to really help. I was with Pampered Chef a few years ago and my upline was.....not the best. She had done some things that really rubbed me the wrong way to the point that my husband wanted me to quit because of how it was all going down. I didn't have a team under me at the time or that would have been quite a bit harder. If you feel comfortable letting us know a bit more about what's going on, we may be able to give you some better suggestions.

3. How can you try to improve your relationship with your upline?

You can try to improve your relationship with your upline by having an open and honest conversation about your concerns and finding a compromise or solution that works for both of you. It's also important to actively listen, show appreciation, and communicate regularly.

4. What can you do if you and your upline still don't mesh well after trying to improve the relationship?

If you and your upline still don't mesh well after trying to improve the relationship, you can seek guidance from other leaders or mentors within the company. You can also explore the possibility of switching uplines if it is allowed in your company's policies.
