10 Tips For Dealing With Employee Attitudes

10 Tips For Dealing With Employee Attitudes

  • Put problem people in perspective. Don't take their antics personally.
  • Go somewhere to cool off.  You can't concentrate on constructive, creative alternatives while you're clinging to anger.
  • Learn to respond as well as listen.  Be assertive.  Don't expect an employee to read your mind.  Let him or her know when you're annoyed, upset or disappointed.
  • Give and request frequent feedback.  Don't stew over what an employee may be thinking.  Ask.
  • Look at policies first.  No matter how angry someone's behavior makes you, don't say or do anything until making sure you're on safe ground.
  • Deal directly and discreetly.  Choose face-to-face talks in private to discuss an employee's attitude or behavior.
  • Always document.  Keep a record of all communications to prevent lies or faulty recollections from taking over later.
  • Be straightforward.  The more you remain matter-of-fact, the less you encourage an employee to play games.
  • Be gracious.  Someone's rudeness doesn't give you the right to respond in kind.
  • Be prepared to fail.  Some people with attitude problems can't be saved, no matter how much counseling you provide.
