Change, accept or walk away?

Why Do Certain People Press Our Hot Buttons? - By Lisa Phillips

A process I often use in my coaching practise is ' Change, Accept or Walk Away'. This is a great process to use when you are unsure what action to take or when you can't seem to decide what you need to do to resolve a particularly tricky situation.

One of my clients recently discussed with me the fact that she was finding it very difficult to work with a particular work colleague who she found to be negative and a gossip. This had been going on for several months and my client was starting to resent this individual and was doing her very best to avoid her whenever possible!

So, we began to look to see what options my client had in dealing with this person.

First we looked at CHANGE.

Was it possible to CHANGE the situation? What options were available for change?

We both agreed that we couldn't change this individuals behaviour but we could make some changes ourselves! These included:

We then looked at ACCEPT.

Was it possible to accept the situation? What options were available to acceptance?

Finally, we looked at WALK AWAY?

Was this situation so bad that we needed to walk away? Did we need to start looking for alternative employment?

One of the beneficial things about this process is that it can force us to take responsibility and get out of blame mode. Try it the next time you need to resolve an issue!
