Today’s coffee chat is a controversial one: Should you have a work bestie? Or should you rather keep work and friendships separate?

In this chat, Tina and Eleni talk about what we know from research on this topic and they also share their own good, bad and ugly  experiences with friendships at work.

Key take-aways: 

• Friendships at work can be an amazing source of support - be it helping each other out with tasks or be it emotional support
• Being friends with your colleagues is tricky because you combine two very different roles: being a friend and being a colleague
• Friendships at work can be a breeding ground for conflict of interest. Choose wisely who you trust to be your work bestie
