Are there team issues that need to be resolved?
Hopefully your team doesn’t resolve conflict in the workplace like these 2 people in the photo!
Remember, I encourage and support people to have tough conversations so they sleep better at night.
One of the ways I do this is by sharing the tips that are in this blog post.

When you’re communicating with others in a stressful setting, focus on these 5 tips:
1. All criticism is valid from the critic’s perspective. Ask yourself what that person sees that you many not.
2. Disregard the judgmental aspects of a criticism and address what can be beneficial to you.
3. Keep your mind open to all viewpoints.
4. Adopt an attitude that says, “I want to know if I have blind spots that I may not see about myself.”
5. Avoid taking a defensive position when criticism is leveled at you.
