Attitudes Toward Your Co-Workers

•    Respect privacy of others.
•    Understand cultural differences.
•    Be supportive of each other (especially female/female relationships).
•    Promote teamwork.
•    Help others to accept change.
•    Use positive language, even in conflict situations.
•    Strive to settle differences before they become a problem—don't carry a grudge.
•    Work to achieve common goals.
•    Do not overemphasize winning—may lose more by winning than by losing a few arguments.
•    Be a good negotiator.
•    Think before  you speak (don't shoot from the hip).
•    Learn to be assertive, not aggressive.
•    Refuse to participate in malicious grapevine information.
•    Don't brag constantly (or whine).
•    Pay value to co-workers—their feelings do count. Show appreciation. Genuinely care about your co-workers.
•    Listen!
