Most people want to work well with others. But most were raised in families
where conflict did not bring them closer. We come to work with two habitual ways of dealing with difficult relationships -- to attack or to withdraw. We tend to avoid addressing differences with our co-workers and especially with our supervisors. Information is not shared, dangers are not discussed, and mistakes are ignored. The individual can become overwhelmingly stressed. The organiziation suffers loss of respect and trust and risks financial loss. The Successful Working Relationships seminar series provides a range of practical tools and techniques that will help you build a more supportive environment in which you will actually look forward to working each day.
