Let's be honest – working with people we don’t click with can be draining. Day in and day out, we have to chat with them, get things done with them, and manage our emotions around them.

It’s easy to get frustrated or stuck in a negative cycle. But what if we stopped waiting and hoping for them to change and focused on what we can control instead?

In this episode of The Manager Track podcast, Ramona Shaw offers a fresh perspective on how to manage tricky work relationships by focusing on what’s within our control: our mindset and reactions.

Ramona breaks the topic into two parts:

- Everyday strategies most of us are familiar with

- A deeper approach that leads to lasting change in how we relate to others

This episode helps you see how your perspective shapes your work relationships and offers actionable steps to make those tough interactions easier.

Let the work drama be a thing of the past, and start the year with a new approach to working with people you don't like.
