5 Ways To Build Relationships At Work by TheBlog: 11:03am On Aug 29, 2017
If you are the kind of person who thinks that your work life is all about you going to work, doing your work and coming back home, then you need to think again. You may be great at your job, but there’s something very important that’s still missing.

Being at work is about much more than doing your work. You spend several waking hours on most days of the week in your office. Perhaps you spend as much time in office as you do at home, if not more. And, therefore, it’s crucial that you have strong and healthy relationships at work. Not only will this help you perform better at work, it will also add to your overall career development.

A good working relationship has several advantages:

- Your co-workers and boss will trust you. They will be more open to ideas and suggestions from you.

- Your boss will think of you every time new career opportunities come along in the company.

- Your customers, clients and other key stakeholders in the company will be happy with you and things will get done more easily.

- When working in a team, your performance will be free of hindrances such as competitiveness and jealousy, and your efforts will reap better results.

- If you have a good relationship with people at work, you will be comfortable with experimentation and exploring new opportunities at work.

A healthy working relationship entails trust, mutual respect and open communication. Just as you would expect your boss and co-workers to be open to your ideas and suggestions, you should be equally welcoming and respectful of theirs. Being honest, expressing gratitude and taking a little bit of time out to enquire about each other’s well being are also important aspects of a good relationship.

Here are 6 ways in which you can build relationships at work:
