The 5 Types Of Coworkers Who Can Make Your Work Life Infinitely Better

The 5 Types Of Coworkers Who Can Make Your Work Life Infinitely Better | Tidbits, titbits or tipbits? | Scoop.it

 

Much attention is paid to the office bullies, jerks, and energy vampires of the world. These are the folks who drain productivity and make that third cup of coffee necessary to face going to the office. Sometimes, it seems like they’re everywhere.

 

But that doesn’t seem to be the reality. While it’s probably not surprising that the 2015 report Employee Job Satisfaction and Engagement by the Society of Human Resource Managers (SHRM) found that 44% of relationships with coworkers were "very important," what may be surprising it that the report also found that 79% of employees were satisfied with those relationships.

 

So, maybe our coworkers aren't as bad as we make them out to be. There are several types of people that can be particularly beneficial. Hiring managers, take note: These are the five types of coworkers everyone needs in the office.

Short of that, though, there's a rough framework managers can use to decide how to direct their energy toward getting the most out of all the personalities on their teams. Here’s a quick rundown of eight of the most common personality types and how to manage each one.

Getting the most out of everyone on your team can be a challenge. This can help.

     There really is no "I" in team. This article covered a barrage of personalities you may encounter when managing a team. Covering many archetypes from the "rising-stars" to the "slackers". I found it to tell me what I already know, but in a more in-depth way than I had previously imagined. This could easily help out a manager or team leader who is trying to learn more about his team and their dynamic.
