We spend a lot of our lives at work. So it makes sense to acknowledge that a difficult workplace can make life miserable. Often, there is a disruptive person at work that throws the whole place off kilter. Coworkers feel miserable, angry, and frustrated. They feel their creativity, productivity, and commitment drain away. They want something to change but don’t know what steps to take and often just hope the difficult worker changes. Which unfortunately never happens.
During a major change, for example, your staff will be on high alert - constantly looking to you for clues on how to react. If you look upset or angry, that negativity can spread like a virus throughout the team, affecting attitudes and lowering energy. Conversely, if you come across as energized and positive, you’re likely to make your entire team feel upbeat and optimistic.
If you think you don’t have time to take on your own and others’ happiness on the job, you might want to think again. Year after year, Gallup finds that nearly two thirds of us are either neutral (meaning we don’t care about our jobs or our organizations) or actively disengaged (meaning we are opting out or even sabotaging results). What makes these statistics even worse is that our 24-7 always-on world means that we skip vacations, do email on the weekends, and take calls at night. Sometimes it feels like we work all the time. And if we are unhappy at work, it is nearly impossible to be fulfilled and content in our personal lives.
