Curing Negativity: Creating Positive Attitudes, Manufacturing Version

There are co-workers who bring negativity into the workplace without realizing it. Sadly, their lack of awareness does not change the impact on everyone around them. Sometimes our co-workers need a nudge to recognize and correct their behavior. The Video On Demand “Curing Negativity: Creating Positive Attitudes, Manufacturing Version” can be delivered to help negative co-workers see themselves and provide practical content to squash negativity.

Negative attitudes may be overt like “The Rumor Monger” who is known for spreading gossip, other times they are subtle like “The Uncommitted” team member who is not serious about work. Overt or subtle, bad attitudes rob workplaces of their momentum and can be corrected. First the owner of the undesirable attitude must accept responsibility. Don't be surprised if your fellow teammate needs you to gently outline the behavior. Be sure to concentrate on the behavior needing to be changed, not the person. This training program puts you on your way to wiping out negativity.

Work is a big chunk of the day and an upbeat facility is a lot easier to walk into. Don't let negativity be a drain on your most important resource, your people.
