October 27, 2006, Newsletter Issue #109: Getting Comfortable
Tip of the Week
What can you do to make yourself and your co-workers "comfortable" with you?
Working for a company where the majority of people are not of the same ethnic background and are much younger than you as well may make you feel awkward.
You might feel uncomfortable working with these people because they have/share very little in common with you, yet you need them to advance in your career.
There is no magic bullet that can solve your problem overnight. First, you need to study up on the culture your peers are from. You need to go to lunch with them, socialize.
Donīt focus so much on the cultural differences, but instead concentrate on the things that you have in common at work. Prove yourself in the office and the cultural barriers will diminish over time.
