Not every colleague will have the same personality, communication style, or working approach.
Instead of taking every interaction personally, focus on professional outcomes and maintain clear boundaries.
When conflict occurs, focus conversations on specific behaviours, responsibilities, and work outcomes rather than personal criticism. Documentation can also help maintain clarity in ongoing professional situations.
You may not be able to change another person's behaviour, but you can control how you communicate and respond.
“You don't have to like everyone you work with to work professionally with them.
