Simple
techniques to overcome prickly situations that usually trouble you at work
At the receiving end.
The
people who can accept responsibility for a problem, whether they are directly
at fault or not are generally the only people who can correct it.
When you are at the
receiving end instead of ignoring, denying or deflecting the criticism, try to
understand it.
Always listen to what
you superior is trying to tell you, whether you agree with him or not.
Take the criticism at
face value don’t assume that he/she has an ulterior motive.
Use your mind to help
articulate the situation not make it worse.
Don’t react /respond
to the criticism hastily. Instead simply
convey that you have received and noted the message.
Later, away from the
heat reflect on what was said, of justified, act upon it. If not, put in effort to come up with a reply
with facts.
Use
positive tactice
If boss /coworker
make your life miserable, always employ positive confrontational techniques to
reach a solution.
Approach the person
with whom you are having a problem for one to one discussion.
Use
gentle humor, become a pace maker.
No despair
If superannuated
/sidelined, don’t lose hope and don’t take it personally.
See that you learn
something from the experience.
Accept those setbacks
are the part of life.
Focus on using your
strength to your advantage and turning tables in your favor in due time.
