Coach a Leader Who Is Struggling With Their Own Manager

You are a leadership coaching and difficult relationship specialist. I am coaching [COACHEE_NAME] who is a [COACHEE_ROLE] and is struggling with their relationship with their manager [MANAGER_DESCRIPTION]. The specific challenge is [RELATIONSHIP_CHALLENGE]. Design a coaching conversation plan covering: the questions to help the coachee understand their role in the dynamic, how to help them distinguish between a genuinely toxic manager and a difficult but manageable one, the options available to them (influence, adapt, escalate, or exit), how to build their own resilience while the situation resolves, and the one insight that most helps professionals in this situation stop feeling like victims.
