By pat, No Comments
 

It’s a great question to ask yourself…”do you take what an employee does personally?”   People are complex and their reactions to workplace situations indicate this complexity.   People react to you because of their own beliefs, the atmosphere of the environment and your behavior.

  • PERSONAL – What about the person who shares a lot of personal information with extensive details.
