For most of the day we spend with our colleagues. And the can make us the life difficult. Why is that? Mostly because they are just different. And that is a good thing!
If I enter in the morning, the Büroder science, it lifts my mood every Time. No matter what basement you previously had holed up. This is due both to the work itself. I like really like my Job. But above all, it’s up to my colleagues. I like almost rather.
Others, however, abdominal pain at the mere thought of their fellow inmates in the office. According to a survey by the health insurance company Pronova BKK 2018 poor work climate was in the year for 29 percent of the respondents, the biggest stress factor. For the working environment, only the stupid colleagues are of course not responsible. However, the most annoying boss, and the most strenuous tasks, with solidarity colleagues better endure.
But what if solidarity far and wide to see nothing? Finally, the colleagues are the people with whom we spend the most time of the day. Nice, if all goes well. Hell, if not.

The Main Thing Is That: I!
The practice of a psychologist and a psychotherapist Karoline Amlacher-Ukobitz in Villach-Landskron in Austria is well filled with patients suffering from the Trouble with your work colleagues.
“Many patients, especially in large companies, have problems with Machiavellian colleagues,” says Amlacher-Ukobitz. Machiavellian means to be unscrupulous, the power is provided to aspire above all else. Such copy is true to the Darwinian Motto of “Survival of the Fittest”.
Against a colleague who is to say after the recognition of finally, literally over dead bodies, is usually not much of anything. The Manager could not enclosing this human wrecking ball would often just the job change, says the psychologist. However, between peace, joy and egg cakes, and Machiavelli thematic escalation in the workplace, there are of course some nuances.
More to the dispute: the dispute in the partnership: Who fights, loses
You’re different. That sucks.
“Someone who thinks rather conventional and little is open to New things with someone who is particularly creative and new ways to go, can already lead to big problems,” says Amlacher-Ukobitz. A face of dreams, the Spinner, while the other feels constantly thwarted.
The cause of the Evil lies in a simple law of nature: We are all different. What may sound banal, in the everyday work, the biggest challenge. However, as we are actually?
The U.S. psychologists Gordon Allpor and Henry Sebastian Odbert already tried to find in the 1930s, an answer to this question. Their goal was to define terms that describe the main dimensions of human personality.
Allport and Odbert were the following psychologists generations of the”Big Five” or the Five-factor model. On the more than 80 years later, Amlacher-Ukobitz refers to.
If there is one in every corner of Trouble, it’s time to ask: Am I, perhaps part of the problem?
Who am I really?
These big five personality traits are openness (to experience), conscientiousness, Extraversion (i.e., sociability), agreeableness (willingness to cooperate, and empathy), and Neuroticism (emotional stability and vulnerability). With the help of personality tests, anyone can find out where your Strengths and weaknesses lie.
“This Test was originally developed to make personnel decision-makers easier to find the right Person for the open spot,” says the psychologist.
I don’t click with me immediately through the many questions, to find out (better late than never), if I’m in my editorial, maybe it is out of place. The results calm down: I’m open to New things, interested in the thoughts of others, reasonably conscientious. Lucky.
Without appreciation it’s not
But what if I would be a timid and self-doubt-ridden type? It was not bad, says the Austrian psychotherapist. An insecure person is often the most reliable, and very carefully, because he wants to make any mistakes. So the apparent weakness in the Job can also be a strength.
“Balance in the Team is important,” says Amlacher-Ukobitz. A conservative, little open a Person can drive the creative mind in the madness. As well, these two characters can also benefit from each other: What is lacking in the Creative of a sense of reality, brings the bureaucrat.
Against a mixed Team is so wrong per se. At least not if the different personalities balance each other out. For this to work, the colleagues need to have, but then there are a few things in common: “A strong team of ability is important for a good working atmosphere. It is also important that employees appreciate.” May we find you in between, yet so whimsical.

Friendships are dangerous
So we are at a crucial point in the work of colleagues-to-many relationship: the one Who rubs me the wrong way regularly, and excites, frightens or unfairly treated feels, should take a look in the mirror.
Maybe my style and my features are part of the problem? Brave, if you are looking for an honest answer. And smart! Finally, it is much easier to change one’s own behavior, as the behavior of others.
From my own experience I can say that the beer can solve a Problem. To learn the other better, it can help to understand their oddities better. And like you at the end of maybe even. My colleagues are now also my friends.
Amlacher-Ukobitz warns, however, friendships between colleagues can be dangerous. A small conflict, then a lot of higher waves. Jealousy could suddenly play a role. In the end, the entire Team suffers. I got the warning from the expert to my editorial friends forwarded. However, we have decided that we would take the risk in purchase.
