Hi,

I would not try to do anything here.

• If he is naturally a good person and a professional - he will act professionally if you meet him next time at the client
• If he does not tend to act professionally - he may act in a weird way. But in that case - there is no way you can get friends or neutral via a simple coffee chat

Hi there,

Stay neutral - don't engage. A coffee chat won't do much to save that relationship. (plus if the manager fired you, I don't think he/she would want to save the relationship either).

In case you meet up again, just be cordial and professional and move along.

Best of luck on proving him/her wrong ;)

Hello,

in your place I would not anticipate too much and would not be too proactive at this stage.

If as you think you meet this manager at one of your clients, it can always be useful to have a coffee with him and tell him that you have moved on to something else and that you hope that he did as well !

Hi,

I would just stay away. If you bump into him, be professional and polite. No need to do anything else. A broken relationship won't be fixed through a coffee chat - best to just leave it be.

Dear A,

I'm totally understand your point. First of all you need to become very thankful for the experience you had with him. And this should be your internal view, because he actually helped you to put yourself in the situation where are you now. With this new job. So, starting with being thankful with him, you can invite him for a cofee chat or lunch in order to work out on your relationship. Bear in mind that the world of consulting and the real career world is pretty small, where everyone knows everybody. So, it's general rule to be friendly and in a good relation ships with everybody. This is essentia in your carerr. Today - he is your boss, tomorrow - he is your client.

I wish you best of luck,

If you need further advice, feel free to reach out,
