Ok folks, Let’s Get to It: If your office is driving you to the point where a homicidal rage feels like it MIGHT just be around the corner, we gotta talk, right? The last thing I would want for you is for you to either lose it at work OR take it out on your loved ones when you get home and we ALL know, if Momma aint happy, ain’t nobody happy! FIRST – let’s start by looking at some easy ways that you can combat this problem head on BEFORE you end up wanting someone’s head on a platter:

1) Mindset

2) The 3 C’s

3) Recognize the Changing Times – vacancies, new technologies

4) Recognize that Office Personality Dynamics COULD be at play

5) Keep the Generational gap in Mind

NOW that we have a much better idea of how to keep yourself in the driver’s seat, also keep THIS in mind:

1) Take Action on What you CAN control

2) Be Proactive in Seeking Solutions, especially with Leadership

3) Last question – do you STILL feel like somedays you need a little extra motivation?

4) THAT’s where a career coach comes in!
