140. The Drama Triangle Explained

This week's episode relates to a topic that I see coming up again and again in my work coaching and training executive assistants and administrative professionals. The Drama Triangle is something you will relate to both in terms of your work environment and in your personal life. Are you a victim, a persecutor, or a rescuer? If you're human, chances are there will be different situations where you may view yourself (or be seen by others) as all three. The Drama Triangle was the work of psychotherapist Stephen Karpman in the 1960s. He developed it as a way to articulate the three dysfunctional roles that operate in any relationship where conflict arises. I've created a free one-page download to help you reflect on the 3 ways you can understand and escape The Drama Triangle. https://bit.ly/linchpin140 Learn more about The Drama Triangle concept: https://powerofted.com/drama-triangle/ https://youtu.be/ovrVv_RlCMw https://www.forbes.com/sites/drnancydoyle/2020/02/17/avoiding-workplace-drama-4-steps-to-being-an-ally-not-a-rescuer-victim-or-persecutor/?sh=43fd46dca3d1
