Truly Neutral understands that healthy workplace relationships can be critical to an organization’s mission. In fact, research has repeatedly shown that strong co-worker relationships promote positive self-images and increased employee morale, both of which lead to greater opportunities for sharing expertise and for improved teamwork and collaboration. Improving workplace relationships and employee engagement has been shown to lead to higher levels of employee retention and job satisfaction, and ultimately to an improvement in the organization’s bottom line, whether measured by client satisfaction, revenue, recognition, or by other means.
Unfortunately, distressed employee relationships can seriously undermine the mission or an organization. Employers may find themselves with two or more valuable co-workers whose productivity or effectiveness has been adversely impacted by a contentious or adversarial workplace relationship. Managers may recognize the problem, but be too busy, unwilling, or incapable of dealing with the issue effectively. Importantly, management’s involvement also may be viewed suspiciously by one of more of the parties. In such circumstances, outside professionals may provide the most effective approach to resolving issues and preserving or restoring successful relationships.
