How to Talk to Your Boss About Your Grief

What do you say to your boss when you are dealing with a loss in your personal life?

The conversation is not an easy one, but it is one that MUST take place. Open lines of communication make it easier on you, your manager and those working on you.

So who do you need to talk to first and how do you start this conversation?

And what exactly should you say? Leadership coach Jill Hunter has some great advice to share.


Jill Hunter, RPh, MBA, spent her first 25 years working as a pharmacist in various healthcare settings where top producers were promoted to management. Managers focused on the numbers creating a culture where everyone feared for their job. When Jill had the opportunity to be a Director of Pharmacy she led her team with empathy, not numbers and it worked! Now Jill coaches professionals how to do the same, eliminating fear management from businesses. Her mission is to make every company a place where everyone wants to come to work every day. People thrive when they feel appreciated, valued and supported.

She speaks to organizations and corporations on leadership and career development. In her coaching business she helps leaders connect on a deeper level with their teams. She also helps people discover new directions for their careers by unleashing their hidden talents, then dialing in the right mix of strengths and potential.

She has a Facebook group to bring like-minded leaders together www.facebook.com/groups/LeadwithEmpathy/
