HR Therapy: Why Managing Relationships At Work is So Hard
Presented by SkillCycle. Recording On Demand
OVERVIEW
Join Hebba Youssef and Rebecca Taylor to talk about the complexity of managing work relationships – and how you can make it easier.
Are you sick of struggling with your relationships at work?
From awkward moments to passive-aggressive emails – we’ve all been there! And since COVID forced us to work in the comfort (and isolation) of our homes: managing relationships seems more complex than ever before.
Whether it’s managing up, across, or down, there’s a common theme: work relationships can be more complicated than they seem. Fortunately, it’s not impossible to manage them, and with the right strategies, it can even be simple – even with half of your team behind a screen.
In this month’s HR Therapy, Rebecca Taylor (Co-Founder of SkillCycle) joins me to explore the ins and outs of managing relationships at work.
