Friendship at work? Forget about it!
Collect biting team and create their dream business - much more likely if you work in a team with someone who irritates and even drives you crazy.
When you imagine a company of your dreams, do you think that this will be a strong team in which you are working hard side by side with the best of friends, spouse (th) or relatives. I enjoy spending time with these people. You are charging each other's emotions and generate great ideas together. It will be awesome!
Or not... Or maybe you're better off working with someone who annoys you?
For example, all the favorite "Mythbusters"Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman together make a huge deal. However, they are not good friends. By Adam saysThey do not communicate off the set, and even during the shooting. Moreover, they are wildly annoying each other!
But why such a relationship work? Because people respect each other. Availability of respect - is critically important. If you respect someone, you do not necessarily feel sympathy for him to have a successful working relationship with him. And, by the way, this communication can have a number of advantages:
Do you like different things, so you will notice the different
When your work and personal interests are similar, both of you are focused on a single task. In such a situation seen only one side of the coin - every problem is considered one-sided. Yes, you exchange pleasantries, save the "cute and fuzzy" relationship. But because of this, you can lose sight of the really important things.
Partner or employee whose point of view is different from yours, see what is outside your field of vision. He notes those areas in which you are rather weak; You, in turn, as you see its failures. You see different things, and it is very profitable.
You will not be distracted by social factors
You will not be distracted from the work on the project, to make plans for the weekend. Your communication is built around a business and nothing more.
Easier to terminate the relationship
There are those (and they are not few) who wants to leave the family business or is no longer able to work at his best friend, but can not do so because they are afraid to spoil a good relationship. Sometimes best friends do not perform their job properly. In an amicable way, they would be worth to dismiss or punish, but employers - their friends, and they can not decide on this.
If your relationships are purely business, with employees who are not working properly, it is easier to leave. If your colleague wants to leave for a new job, you say: "Excellent! Good luck!". Simply and without ulterior motives. Without fear that someone will take offense at you.
This may seem a trifle, but, referring to the company's purely business relationship, the amount of stress is reduced significantly.
Common sense is better complaisance
You need to surround yourself with smart people. People with grandiose ideas. Not those who would like to go to lunch or to discuss the newly acquired gadget. Awesome ideas can come from completely different people. Best of all, if the state will be the ones who can make you think seriously. Those who say, "But ...", and point to the flaws that you have overlooked.
The key factor - respect
If you are so annoying person that you want to yell at him, you are unlikely to succeed to build a stable business communication. You have to respect each other. You should be able to listen to all that your colleague is trying to tell you. And you do not have to be friends.
The next time, when in the company you will look for a new employee or partner, look for those who generates cool ideas and think differently than you. Look to those who have much angry, irritated, or even crazy. Perhaps some of them are really great professionals, which must be taken as "hot to". And be with you for strength and peace of mind!
