About this episode
The episode explores the importance of the conversations we have with ourselves in the workplace and how they impact our results and relationships.
For eight weeks now, we've been offering perspectives on using the tool we have of how we talk to each other at work as a way of paying more attention and making more deliberate choices to drive the kinds of results and relationships we want to have. Now that we've reached the final installment of our series on conversations that count, we've realized the one we did not address is how we talk to ourselves. The conversation we have with ourselves throughout the day is the most potent, useful, and damaging conversation we can have in the workplace. So, quiet that inner critic for a moment and join us on our final conversations that count deep dive. Listen in and join the discussion on LinkedIn ( Eric | Nayla ). Inside Job is brought to you by Nayla Bahri and Eric Johnson.
