EVER HAVE TO WORK WITH ONE OF
THEM
??? . |
Ask anyone what their biggest problem at work
is.
It's probably not the reports, deadlines or computer glitches. It's getting through it all with the
people involved - both co-workers
and clients! Maybe, like me, you've worked with people like the folks on the right...
The truth is:
Lucy and Joan (to the right)
do know what
they want but they don't express it well. Quincy doesn't recognize that his way of getting to the point
drives other people nuts. And Warren is intimidated by all three so he doesn't want to reveal
much about himself.
What's
the reality here?
Like it or not, the office is our second family.
And life gives you about as much choice
for co-workers as it does for siblings!
And even LESS choice about your clients.
So the trick is to find the way to
like it.
|
|
When we like being with our co-workers and clients, we support
each other.
We go the extra mile for teammates, maybe without even
being asked.
Studies show we produce better work in such an environment, have better
attendance, and achieve greater
customer satisfaction.
People who like being together show respect to one another, curtailing a myriad of potential harassment suits.

|
Lucy -- who never knows
what she wants? |
Joan --
who thinks she's informed you but you still don't have the facts?
|
Quincy --
who interrupts and never acknowledges what you've said?
|
Warren --
who no one really knows after three years because he just kinda sits there?
|
|
Bottom
Line
When
we enjoy working with those around us, the company gets satisfied, productive employees who want to stay.
This makes the investment that the company puts into THEM pay
off. |
How Milo and TEAMprovising fit in
In my fifteen years of information technology working
for corporations and government agencies, I worked with all four of the
people above and hundreds of others -- all of whom ranged from loveable to
infuriating.
I actually liked working with Quincy
because I learned to work within his style -- through humor, good-naturedness, and effective communication. It was always a challenge, but
paid off repeatedly.
And he often told my boss how much easier
I was to
work with than other supporting staff. Really, I hadn't changed; my
attitude
toward him had. |

"TEAMprovising
created the community, creativity, and cooperation I've wanted to see from the
team leads. Even the most conservative ones were caught up in the momentum
and calling out their realizations after the exercises."
