You exist in the company because you are creating benefits for the company, not getting paid unconditionally.
In the face of interests, any gossip is a clown
For example, you are now in charge of a very important project, which will bring millions of profits to the company. At this time, someone complained to you. I believe that as long as you are not a stupid leader, you will ignore or otherwise repair the complainant.
So what do you need to do when you encounter this thing?
1, what you need to do is very simple, that is, samurai.
As an ordinary person, the most direct response to being abused behind his back is to fight back.
Maybe you will argue in front of the leader, maybe you will argue with the complainant, and there may be verbal conflicts or even physical conflicts.
But what I want to say is that these behaviors are not desirable.
You just need to find out what we do in the company.
As mentioned earlier, we are here to create value and benefit. Instead of coming to the company to report gossip every day.
Then, when someone complains, please ask the guide.
Just continue to follow the company's procedures and systems and do your own thing well.
2, speechless, is the most powerful counterattack!
As a leader, a smart leader will naturally not take any action against you directly, but will observe whether you have what the complainant said, whether the complaint is official or private.
When the complainant's words have no influence on the department or company, I believe the leader will have his own judgment. As long as the leader is not stupid, he will know who is working and who is gossiping here.
When the complainant's words have a certain influence on the department or company, the leader will not only distinguish between true and false, but also observe your ability to handle this matter. Then, as mentioned above, just continue to do your own thing according to the company's procedures and systems, that is, you can handle this matter perfectly without causing unnecessary waves. Who do you think the leader will praise?
Similarly, leaders realize that people who complain like this in the department will also think of their own interests. Every department will have management or other defects. If there are people who like to snitch in the department, who will be influenced by such people to complain to the top management of the company in case of big mistakes or defects in the department? Do you think the leader will leave such a person in the department?
To sum up, it is not advisable to complain at any time. We pay attention to the ways and means of work, and do not rule out uncooperative departments in cross-departmental cooperation. So what we need is to escalate the problem according to the company's process, instead of complaining to the leaders about it.
In addition, I want to remind everyone that in the workplace, keep your bottom line and always remember that there are no eternal enemies and friends, only eternal interests. Helping others equals helping yourself!
