Is a colleague stoking you the wrong way?

If you have ever felt that a colleague has rubbed you the wrong way, it might have to do with your differences in intrinsic motivation. When people have opposing needs, they tend to misunderstand each other.

If the person is trying to give you more of what he himself wants, but you do not, the situation might become more and more tense, even if the other person would have good intentions.

If the other person’s ways of working do not resonate with your values, you might drift more and more apart. If the person is important for you to be able to do a good job and to get results, you would need to understand more of each other’s perspectives. There is a tool: the Ph.Dr. Reiss Motivation profile. It is internationally used to improve co-operation and for leadership training.

Informator is conducting trainings based on Dr. Reiss method.
