Workplace Friendship Is An Advantage? Or Burden?

In the workplace, the relationship between dealing with superiors, colleagues and customers is actually finding the distance between being warm and not being tied up.

But one day Marie told me that she decided to change her job because her relationship with her boss had become a barrier to her work.

Although her superiors often say she supports her promotion in the workplace, every time when she submits her ideas about work, she will say that those ideas are not perfect enough to reject it.

Gradually, she realized that her boss was in a delicate competitive relationship with her.

Similar personality made them friends, but it also became the reason why she could not develop.

At the same time, because of her close relationship with her boss, she was also misunderstood and alienated from other colleagues in the company.

Not friendship.

Eating short mouth and short hands are not equal in nature. What about friendship?

But this kind of personal information must be screened, and the degree and way of sharing must also be observed.

Once a friend who regarded his boss as a "friend", he was very proud to invite his boss to the "luxury house" that he had just purchased. He also introduced his experience of buying houses with a slightly showcase. As a result, he was said to have not been paid any more since two years later. Although his boss seemed too small minded, he could not help but say that he asked for it.

Another drawback to making friends with superiors is suspicion and Prejudice from other colleagues.

It is because of the inequality of hierarchy, and the intimacy of the boss's "brother", no matter what it means, it seems to be "deliberate upward".

In a company, even if it is large enough to occupy a whole floor of office, even if there is a lattice baffle half of the line of sight, everyone in the room will notice the person who often goes alone to his boss office and sometimes closes his speech.

When you talk to your boss at the company meeting, only when you know each other, you are not showing your unique status, but isolating yourself.

Therefore, since both sides are laborious and thankless, why do you need comrades?

"Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn the boat." once a senior man said to me, "what is the friendship built on that basis in competition in the same industry and conflict of interests?"

In the workplace, this life and death of the rivers and lakes, who dares to say that he will not "get knife"?

Making friends with colleagues will help you a lot in career development in many ways.

They can make suggestions and suggestions on your performance at work, and provide support for you when you need them.

They keep you happy at work and even improve your work efficiency.

It is a matter of serious consideration whether we should turn this tacit agreement into a deeper friendship when we meet our colleagues who are in the field. Trust is a prerequisite for consideration.

Then you have to hope that these ideas will not be revealed to your friends intentionally or unintentionally, but what you need is trust.

At the same time, as a listening person, if we cherish the friendship equally, we must maintain loyalty to our friends, because trust is only given to those who are worthy of trust.

When the friendship in a working relationship goes wrong, the price you pay is directly proportional to the emotion you put in.

In the final analysis, work depends on people's economy. If a person is forced to choose between two sources of his or her own friendship, most people will choose to keep their jobs.

So when you decide to make a close friend in the workplace, you must be clear about it, whether you are cutting corners for someone or stabbing a knife behind your back.

Emotional input is easy to make people lose their objectivity, and it is easy for people to be constrained by relationships, resulting in a lot of awkward situations that you don't know how to say and how they refuse.

At the same time, too intimate personal relations will also damage the trust of both sides in the business field.

The boss and colleagues of the two sides will more or less think that you have sacrificed the interests of the company in the paction.

Therefore, although the personal relationship with customers can have a lot of positive impact on the work, if we can not grasp the yardstick consciously, it is better to keep distance in my opinion.

After all, good work results are the foundation of all workplace relationships.

Try to save more friendship as much as possible. If you want to raise money, you must make it up as soon as possible.

The importance of balance is learned from the lesson of "blood" for those who have seen overdrawn bank accounts.

Workplace classic case

I will make friends with my competitors or clients. The only principle is "work first, friendship second".

To be friends with our competitors, the good thing is that we can work together to share information resources in the corresponding work, and many problems that we can't find the answers can be found in their communication.

But the disadvantage is that our topic can never be too open, especially when it comes to sensitive work information.

In any field, not only public relations, personal goals are developed, mature and ultimately successful.

If we reach some consensus by appreciating our competitors, this will give you a sense of work in the larger group rather than isolation from each other.

If customers can regard you as a member of their team and work together towards the same goal, they will make cooperation more meaningful.

In many cases, once a client is established with respect and trust, the advantage is that cooperation is more successful. They will be more reasonable and satisfy your needs, and vice versa.

However, we need to pay more patience and understanding when working with some of the more difficult customers.

Under such circumstances, I try to stand in their shoes and understand their stress and disappointment.

The careless experience of making friends in the workplace will make us smarter in our career and personal life.

Of course, accepting, recognizing and making friends can be two different things.

Everyone has his characteristics and likes and dislikes. He is not a type of person. You can make friends or make friends. I believe there is a gas field between people and people. Some people are comfortable and pleasing to look at.

Because I am a salesperson, I can make friends with the sales in the company of my competitors, find more sales opportunities and career opportunities, improve vocational skills and expand customer base.

Some of these friends are familiar with the process of visiting customers, some of whom are met at some industry meetings, and some online dating channels related to sales careers.

For a long time, a lot of relationships are lost.
