Probably more people than you realize spend the majority of their time working with others in an employment-related situation. And, unless we’re lucky, none of us get to pick who our co-workers are.
Unfortunately, not everyone knows how to get along with others. This can and usually does cause all kinds of difficult situations, making it almost impossible to get through the day.
It is a fact though, that working well with others is crucial. However, it's even more important in a workplace environment. Why? It boils down to things like efficiency, productivity and employee morale... just to name a few.
The size of the company or business you work for really doesn’t matter. The rules are basically the same if you work with one other person or 1,000. Each individual deserves the same level of respect and consideration.
During your job search, have you ever noticed the phrase “must work well with others” in the job description or on the application? If so, there’s a very good reason for this. Employers do not want to hire individuals who don’t work well with others. It typically causes problems right from the beginning. And as someone who has reviewed hundreds of resumes over my career, I can tell you everyone includes that on their resume whether it is a true statement or not, that’s how important it is.
So, join me and let’s jump into this well-established need to learn how to work well with others.
