How to deal with workplace infighting? Internal infighting is a common phenomenon. Many times, I don't want to get involved in it, but what can I do to survive the infighting in the workplace? Here are 10 tips for protecting yourself in the company's internal infighting. I hope you can protect yourself in the workplace.
Where there are people, there is Jianghu. The workplace is also a "swords and swords" Jianghu. How can you protect yourself and make a breakthrough in this Jianghu? Today we talk about some tips to protect yourself in the workplace.
1. Never trust your friends at work completely. It is difficult to have true friends when there are conflicts of interest in the workplace. It is not necessarily a good person who praises you in front, but a bad person who harms you behind. When you get along with your friends in the workplace, you should pay more attention to everything. Since ancient times, there have been many so-called friends stabbing in the back.
2. In communication, avoid unnecessary entanglement. You need to focus on the results you really want.
Before communication, especially important communication, confirm the purpose and needs of your communication. When communicating with colleagues/customers, you should first ask yourself what you really want (for example, I hope Xiao Wang can help me with this project), and what you don't want/want to avoid (for example, to avoid the unclear division of work after Xiao Wang's participation). Think clearly about your purpose. Once your purpose deviates in communication, you can quickly return to the right track.
3. People who don't know how to be modest usually don't know how to behave, don't care about anything, don't expose them, anyway, listening to others' boasting won't cause any loss. But keep a distance from such people. People who are good at talking are often not good at doing things, and people who are good at acting are often not good at speaking
4. If it is not necessary, try not to deliver messages for the other two people , your message may become the fuse of their contradiction. If you must deliver a message, make sure that the person you are delivering knows the content of your message clearly.
5. Learn to "refuse" scientifically.
We may encounter requests for help from colleagues in the workplace. In some cases, you may not want to help for various reasons, but how can you refuse?
When you refuse, please avoid sounding aggressive, such as "Don't you see I'm busy?". We can say, "I really have a lot of things on hand recently, and I don't have enough time and energy. Reluctantly doing it may slow down your project". This statement is not offensive, but also firmly and reasonably expresses his rejection.
When rejecting the other party, you can also:
Tell the other party specifically how you think about it, and give possible suggestions at the same time.
When you explain the reason to the other party, avoid lengthy excuses, frequent apologies, etc.
You need to be prepared to express your ideas and needs repeatedly and firmly.
6. Don't try to please anyone, This will not have the effect of reducing your personality. At the moment when you want to please, you are no longer equal.
7. On the premise of not harming your own interests, not violating the company's interests, and not violating laws and regulations, if you have the spare power, you should help others as much as possible. Everyone needs help sometimes. You helped others today. Maybe he will help you someday
8. Don't underestimate or offend anyone. A seemingly ordinary person may have more background, resources, circles and energy than you think. Treat all people equally and do not be snobbish.
9. Silence is golden. Silence is a good choice when you don't know how to answer. It represents many meanings. Don't be a teacher and judge others easily.
10. Wait three seconds before speaking. As the saying goes, "Think twice before you act." When you want to say something, don't hurry. Wait first. Think again to see if there would be any problem with this way of speaking, and if there would be a better way of expression.
