How To Solve 5 Common Workplace Problems

Knowing exactly what to say will help you get out of problems at work that almost everyone has at one time or another. In this video, I’ll show you how you can respond confidently, yet still professionally, when you encounter certain very common problems at work. We’ll talk about what you can say when your employer is giving you too much work, when a colleague is acting as if they’re your boss, when a long conversation isn’t going anywhere, and more. Next time you have one of these issues at work, try using one of my suggested responses and let me know in the comments how it goes. www.engvid.com/how-to-solve-5...

What a great, straight to the point and helpful video. There were a few situation recently at work and I was pondering how to navigate them. This lesson was a godsend! Thank you ever so much!

[@Die_Biene]

I recently had a Scrum Master workshop and the trainer asked "Did this help you?" everytime he explained something when someone had a question. This simple question at the end really helps both sites to reflect what they talked about and if it had the expected effect. Sometimes the questioner is just nodding but did not take anything with him at the end.

Appreciate this content, currently I found large gap in my English usage, when I attempt to combine words in a pharase rather than know and utilize the suitable phrase. I have enough intellect to notice it, but your videos give me boost in actually acquiring this phrases in my everyday life.

Of course you have to address behavior issues with employees, but be careful _how_ you do so. I made mine feel bad about his mistake. I’m a high-ranking chef at a university and I was told by an employee that her coworker (let's call him Will) had been touching crew members too much. Not _that_ type of touch, just casual ones, like on arms or shoulders. He was always very outgoing and tactile at work. I took him to my colleague’s office and told him he shouldn't touch anyone without consent. Just handshakes. I said we needed the workers to be comfortable in a good work environment, that he pretty much shouldn't talk about anything other than work and school. How he shouldn't tell his stories because they may be inappropriate to some degree to the other workers; funny to him only. I think he’s about 25, give or take. He seemed pretty quiet and uncomfortable during my speech. Answered a question or two with a nod and headshake. *(Warning: Graphic Content)* That night, Will got shot by a woman he knew, who said "Your time is up. This is for your unfiltered joke yesterday. HeII, this is for _everyone_ who knows you. Nobody WANTS you. You deserve to DlE!" And then she stuck a knife into his stomach. *Luckily* the police arrived to arrest her and save Will. He was treated at the hospital _just_ in time. But...what if he wasn't? What if our *_last_* moment was in the office? Yes, I needed to address his behavioral "issue," but I should've been more respectful. More filter, less touching at work? Yeah, but compromise would've been fine. Like, only touching friendly coworkers he gets along great with. It's perfectly natural to causally touch or tap people *without* it being creepy. Will never meant to be that word. He just needed some limits, not all or nothing. I should’ve shown more patience and only given him a very brief and gentle talk in the hall, not a *firm lecture in the office* with his *boss present.* And I shouldn’t have asked her if there anything she wanted to add. So insensitive. Will never meant any discomfort or harm. He only meant to have fun with his coworkers. I made him feel bad, and the assaiIant made it much worse. I have to apologize to him whenever I can, for mishandling the situation. His assauIt is the only thing that made realize what was right.
