To be trusted you need to work yourself flat like a slave. Only to promote those with no college degrees or are not even pursuing

Maybe people born in your time prioritize trust. it's just not there. Even to come to work. You are not trusted.

You got the kind of energy I bring to work!!😂 No reason to make work a DRAB. Might as well make it a positive and non-judgmental environment!!! 😊 ALSO, people need to apply this to their day-to-day life. It’s always the little things you need to appreciate and be thankful for!! I don’t think your life has to have a purpose, or you a grand ambition; I think it’s okay to just wander through life finding interesting things until you die. Traditional (western/white) narrative arc has tricked way too many people into thinking their lives have to have one grand epiphany, some flash of great meaning and deep insight, when in reality most people experience these things in much smaller ways throughout life. I think this also leads a lot of people to miss the stuff that actually makes them happy, because it’s mostly the small stuff. They spend their entire lives looking for a lightening strike and miss out on everything else.

This is very valuable organizations. Hold a lot of meetings and just assume that people will have agency in those meetings will have a voice. Often that's not the case. People get talked over, meetings are often dominated by one or two people. People aren't listened to and all of this can affect morality ideas flowing. So thank you for this video. Teaching effective meeting skills. Active listening and all of that makes the meeting better for all.

I work at vet clinic - was recently purchased by a new dr. I have now been pushed into receptionist and have a desk job - I don't care for it and I have expressed to him how it was not what I wanted. We have been working together now for 4 months. It started off great, he showed much gratitude with me helping him transition. But now, he is ignorant at times and belittling. I have yet to witness him treat other staff that way. I am at a loss and am ready to walk away. I have yet to confront him. I just took some notes from your video hope it helps!

This is great! What makes this video even better is that the three examples you use can be brought up in everyday conversations, rather than being limited to specific circumstances. As someone who feels anxious talking to strangers, knowing that certain social conventions fly straight over my head, learning about tips and tricks such as these really help me to keep calm. After all, while it is impossible to remain true to yourself while appeasing everyone around you, learning to be more approachable will have a positive imact on life.

I've been working at a polytechnic college for twenty-two and a half years. There are a few sets of doors on campus that will stay open to wherever you push them, and early in the morning, they tend to be partly opened by someone who squeezed through on their way down the hallway, or one of the two matching doors will still be closed. I'm not sure who is going to take over the awesome responsibility of opening them all the way when I retire in January!

Sometimes what you call "fun" is "unnecessary complication" that can add stress to other people's days, especially if they're socially awkward and just trying to get through their work. Workplaces aren't playgrounds
@MichaelKerrInspiringWorkplaces9 ай бұрын
Thanks for your comment! Without a doubt workplaces need to encourage fun that invites people to willingly play without forcing them to have fun! There's nothing worse than forced fun. As I write about in my book The Humor Advantage, one study of working dogs showed that dogs that were "forced" to play as a reward actually showed an increase in stress levels! Having said that though, there is an overwhelming amount of research that shows that, when done well, the injection of more humor and fun in a workplace in a safe, welcoming way that helps everyone gain a greater sense of belonging, has enormous benefits and numerous fronts, from morale, to innovation to reduced turnover rates and better communication.

One of the most petty ways employers demotivate their employees is to used any failures or setbacks they have against them and try to put them down as much as possible. I can see this happens at any workplace environment that have a lot of workplace politics. They reinforce this mindset that your not good enough to get ahead and we're just sticking you at where you at since your pretty good at that job.

One of my biggest pet peeves at any workplace is when your being constantly pulled from what your doing, that ruins any progress or productivity you have. Also being constantly asked to come back to your previous job that you didn't want anything to with in the first place even though they know well that you'll never come back. These type of pet peeves really grind my gears!!!
