We will learn: What happens to our brains when we’re in conflict. The archetypes of difficult people so you can better identify the root of their behavior. 9 principles for getting along with anyone. Sometimes people suck. They’re passive-aggressive, sometimes straight-up aggressive, they blame you for their wounds, they steal the credit for work you did, and that’s just at work. It makes you wonder, are work relationships even worth it? Turns out, they are, and we’ll get into the why in the episode but for now, just know that ignoring your colleagues because you have friends outside of work can do a lot of damage to your happiness and your career. So if work relationships are so beneficial to us, what can we do? How can we get along, or at least work with, anyone, even difficult people? That’s what we’re talking about today.
