In David Tanner’s book, Office Etiquette Do’s and Don’ts, Tanner offers great advice on how individuals can avoid conflicts in the workplace by following some simple guidelines. — [1] —. Mr. Tanner argues that many employees have their bleak future and eliminate themselves from considerations for their promotion because of their inability to manage their office behavior effectively.
For instance, whenever you have issues in the workplace, you’re better off thinking through your words before you voice complaints, thoughts, or suggestions. Assess the situation carefully. — [2] —. If the gains outweigh the losses, proceed in a professional and polite manner. In the instance, you do find yourself in a workplace conflict, be sure to protect yourself with thorough documentation. — [3] —. A smart employee will document issues that relate to self-preservation and protection of job security.
Mr. Tanner is a workplace psychologist and bestselling author who has won numerous awards for his research and writings on workplace issues. — [4] —. Two of his earlier books have sold more than one million copies worldwide. Office Etiquette Do’s and Don’ts has already sold 20,000 copies since being released by Bramberton Press only five months ago.
