What if Your Personalities Clash?
Personality Clashes
If conflict between you and another is caused by basic personality clashes, the conflict will most likely continue. That is a standard unless attitudes and behaviors are changed.
There are a few suggestions that can change the culture of your environment. Those suggestions include:
- Accept that people are different.
- Think about how much energy is wasted in your dislike for the other person, and how you could invest that energy in more productive ways.
- Don’t gossip or complain about the person to others or listen to the gossip of others.
- Try to be reasonable and polite, or at least neutral, to the person you don’t particularly care for and expect civility from everyone around you.
- Make a conscious effort to work towards making your workplace a friendlier environment.
