Manage episode 433843900 series 3009558
In this episode, Steven Morris and Michael Bungay Stanier discuss:
- Psychological safety enhances workplace dynamics
- How leaders can nurture the best relationships
- Side-stepping the drama triangle and focusing on clear communication
- Redefining your meaning of success
Key Takeaways:
- Cultivating healthy working relationships is imperative for both personal happiness and success. Conversations that create psychological safety can enhance workplace dynamics.
- For leaders to nurture the best relationships possible, they should aim for safety, vitality, and repairability. These discussions are pivotal for cementing a successful and harmonious rapport.
- Conflict, if not managed well, tends to devolve into putting each person or party in the role of either the rescuer, the victim, or the persecutor. Clear out boundaries and remind everyone that the goal is to communicate effectively, not for either side to win or lose.
- Seek growth through overcoming challenges rather than simply amassing wins. Redefine your meaning of success; set meaningful goals, learn continuously, and know when to feel content and how you can contribute positively.
"Keep asking yourself what success is, and then keep finding opportunities to do work that is thrilling and important and daunting, that gives you some principles to figure out some interesting stuff and be fulfilled." — Michael Bungay Stanier
