In modern companies, especially in internet and technology-related ones, job roles are becoming increasingly specialized, but the development and production of a product or software requires multiple departments to work together. This leads to a practical issue: cross-department communication.
The ability to collaborate across departments is becoming more important in today's workplace.
The smoothness and harmony of cross-department collaboration directly affect the progress of bringing products to the market, ultimately influencing the company's development. In daily work, it is often noticed that some people excel in cross-department communication while others face obstacles. This is often related to whether or not the person is liked by their colleagues. The reason behind being disliked is quite clear - it is because the person is unpleasant to be around.
Many people believe that they are likable, but in reality, it is often the opposite. To have effective cross-department communication, it is necessary to first determine if you are disliked by your colleagues. If your colleagues exhibit the following behaviors, it indicates that they dislike you.
1.
They have a high emotional intelligence when dealing with others, but a low one when dealing with you. This can manifest as impatience and low emotional investment in discussions or problem-solving sessions.
2. They avoid or dismiss you. If a colleague repeatedly finds excuses to evade you or respond briefly and optimally to your questions or opinions, it indicates their avoidance due to dislike.
3. They exhibit excessive negativity towards you. When people are feeling negative, they typically confide in their closest friends. Similarly, if a disliked colleague shares their negative emotions with you, it is likely because they do not care about your perception of them.
If you want to improve your relationship with disliked colleagues, the best approach is to genuinely empathize with their negative emotions and offer positive feedback.
With time and effort, it is possible to change their perception of you. When colleagues dislike you, the first step is to not get angry. Assess how they behave towards others. If their behavior is consistent, you may not need to worry. However, if they specifically exhibit negative behavior only towards you, it is necessary to reflect on yourself and identify any possible reasons for it. Are you a person who is disliked by your colleagues? If you believe that you are, feel free to ask questions and seek advice.
