I read an article today on the dark side of cliques – it speaks about how cliques in the workplace can have a negative effect on overall performance. A good approach to break them down is to take them head on, and facilitate open discussions, so people aren’t excluding their co-workers, talking behind their back or leading a negative charge.
I heard recently the one of the top reasons people leave their job is a lack of a friend at work, or a bad relationship with their boss. No wonder it is important to make everyone feel included.
