Work. Life Enhancement Strategy

Most of us spend the majority of our lives at work, navigating a variety of personality types and work styles different from our own. As we know, it is important and highly encouraged to spend time developing new emotional skills in several life domains. Work is one of these significant domains that can challenge us in terms of balancing our emotions, especially when we work on teams or in departments.

Life Enhancement Strategy: Acknowledge the emotional undercurrents of communication at work. Share these observations in a nonconfrontational way with your coworkers and bosses and facilitate a dialogue about the roles of emotions in the workplace (Lopez, Pedrotti, & Snyder, 2019).
