Erin McGoff: How to be Instantly More Confident at Work

It's such a great tip. You know, instead of saying, well, I think I'd be good at this. I'm confident I'd be good at this. Just throwing the word confident in there. Beautiful tip. Perfect tip.

Oh, that's really tough. You know, I think there's kind of two categories when it comes to passive aggressive people. There's one category where it's affecting you and your work and your ability to complete your duties and responsibilities. And then there's another category where they don't affect your work at all. It's just annoying.

And so my overarching advice when dealing with anybody difficult at work is just to not take it personally. I think it's hard when you're at work and somebody's giving you a little attitude and, you know, to get all festered and flustered and, you know, get mad at them. But, you know, don't get mad. Just get curious. You know, think about how. Like, why are they this way?

Why are they so miserable? And you talk a lot about passive aggressiveness. I want to hear your answer as well. But when people are passive aggressive, it's because they lack an ability to communicate like an adult and professionally. And I think there are some instances where actually passive aggressive behavior or passive behavior is okay.

Sometimes people might be trying to hint to you something. So something that I like to ask if you're not sure if somebody's being passive aggressive is, oh, did you mean that genuinely? Or were you trying to hint at something? Because you actually never know. Somebody might mean something really genuinely, but you're insecure about what's going on, so you're taking it in a passive-aggressive way.

Or they might be 100% just being a jerk and just being passive-aggressive. So when you ask them, hey, did you mean that genuinely or were you trying to hint at something? Then they either have to confront, no, I meant that genuinely, or they have to say, no, I was actually hinting at something.

Yeah, because they're defensive and they're insecure, and that's how they're communicating in a passive-aggressive manner. So if you fight fire with fire, yeah, it typically doesn't work out.
