Marlene Chism | How Leaders Can Stop Workplace Drama

How do we stop or curb drama in the workplace? That's the basis of my conversation with Marlene Chism in the fifth episode of my leadership podcast show, “Leadership Biz Cafe”.Marlene is a speaker, author and founder of The Stop Your Drama Methodology, an eight-part empowerment process to increase clarity and improve productivity and personal effectiveness. Marlene has a master’s degree in HR Development from Webster University and is the author of “Success is a Given: Reading the Signs While Reinventing Your Life”, as well as recently published “Stop Workplace Drama - Train Your Team to Have No Complaints, No Excuses and No Regrets”.Over the course of our conversation about how to manage workplace drama, Marlene and I discuss:Learning to appreciate the difference between the drama that arises at work and the drama that comes out from your reaction to that situation.How a lack of clarity leads to workplace conflict and what we can do to regain clarity when our perspective about what's going on around us becomes obscured.How to identify the gap between your goals and where your team is and the relationship this gap has in creating drama in the workplace.Why we need to take responsibility for what we can control in order to resolve workplace conflict.That workplace drama in itself isn't the real problem; that it's something more personal and more within our control that we can address.As I mentioned at the end of the show, I’d love to hear what you think about this episode, as well as what other topics you’d be interested in hearing more about in upcoming episodes of my show.
