Bring your personal peace–your inner peace–to create peace at work.
That’s your first contribution to creating mutually supportive relationships and preventing relationship problems at work.
The second is to enhance your communication, negotiation and conflict management skills to resolve relationship problems at work should they occur.

No workplace can, in all conscience, allow that much time, profit, talent and morale go unattended. In any economy, it is only wise to offer employees the insights, support and training they need to optimize their effectiveness on the job every day. Dr. Rhoberta Shaler has worked with many workplace groups and teams. In one case, the result of three months of consulting was an annual saving of $70,000+. That’s effective!
Dr. Shaler is the author of Wrestling Rhinos: Conquering Conflict in the Wilds of Work, which has been referred to as “a must for every business library” by Jim Cathcart, creator of Relationship Selling.
