Myth or Reality?
People on your team aren’t talking to each other—but no one is coming forward to tell you why, and you’re not sure how to bring it up or resolve it.
The “queen bee” of the office isn’t speaking to you this week—and you miss out on crucial information about upcoming projects you’re all supposed to be working on.
Your boss yells at you and humiliates you—in front of your co-workers and staff.
Forced alliances with “frenemies,” people talking behind your back, uncomfortable tensions at meetings, power struggles, complaining and whining—and no one to turn to, because leadership isn’t any better.
You’re stuck. On one hand you have your staff, who are making assumptions based on limited information. And your higher-ups aren’t much help in clearing the air, because they expect you to just deal with it.
We all expect a little bit of drama with any job. After all, we’re only human, and drama comes with the territory. No one is immune. It’s just as likely to happen throughout management as it is in the rank and file.
But when the drama at work is taking the place of work, taking away people’s focus and energy, then you’re losing ground. Your productivity plummets, quality suffers, you may even lose customers, and you become an emotional wreck from all the stress.
What is drama? Drama is anything that prevents you from accomplishing work, being truly happy and having peace of mind—that’s drama.
It can be problems with your boss, power struggles with other employees, a fight with your spouse, or even just feeling like you don’t have enough time. Anything that takes your mind off your true focus and drains your energy is drama.
And drama can cost you. Negativity cost the U.S. economy an estimated 3 billion dollars in lost productivity last year alone.
What’s your share of the drama—and how much is it costing you personally? Time from work? A promotion? A raise? Your dignity? Your happiness and well-being?
Enter Marlene Chism and the Workplace Conflict Training Camp. How do you recognize drama, take responsibility for your part of the drama—and stop it dead in its tracks?
When you sign up for Workplace Conflict Training Camp, you get to take part in Marlene’s pioneering 8-principle Stop Your Drama methodology—a signature process that helps you identify drama, remove yourself from it, and start to resolve the conflict that’s been eating away at you, your team—and your results.
Workplace Conflict Training Camp goes beyond typical conflict-resolution and communication training. Marlene helps you examine the root of workplace drama, as well as what it’s costing you. Where is the negativity coming from—and how is it fueling the gossip, complaints, low morale, power struggles and poor leadership? How can you take personal responsibility and step out of the vicious cycle, freeing up more of your energy for more important things in your life?
Once you’ve pinpointed the problems, Marlene shows you how to apply your knowledge and techniques to every day situations—so that you’re more drama-proof the minute you walk back through your office door.
Imagine what your days would be like without all the unnecessary pettiness and negativity. You could get more done at work, have more time for yourself, have higher job satisfaction, spend time working with your staff instead of bickering and mediating, and most of all, achieve peace of mind.
Break the cycle. Don’t let yourself get caught up in useless power struggles—and don’t feed into them either! Workplace Conflict Training Center makes it easy to gain perspective—to see through the clutter that’s taking up your time and move past the drama to more important pursuits.
Sign up for Workplace Conflict Training Center, and start getting your life—and your sanity—back.
