Healthy Working Relationships


Most issues won't go away unless you address them and there are lots of people who would be happy to support you in having a conversation to help you build and improve your working relationships if you really feel that you can't do this alone.

Where things go wrong, it’s normally important for us to tell someone so things don’t become worse, as that harms us all. Resolving things quickly is less stressful for everyone involved. Before you speak to your manager, TU rep or HR you need to consider what the resolution is that you hope to achieve. What would need to change to solve the problem that you are facing. You need to be clear not just about what the problem is, but how it can be solved. If you’re not sure what this is or what might be possible, they will be able to help. The following questions may help you put your thoughts together. You can complete them on your own or with support.
