Ask any married couple and you will quickly learn that you can’t make anyone change. You can wish them to change, ask them to change, demand they change, even threaten them to change, but, in the end, change can’t be imposed from the outside, it can only grow from within. This is also true of your work relationships. As much as you would like to change your co-workers, your manager or your employees, you can’t. There is hope though. When people are given a good example to follow, they can, eventually, discover for themselves that there are benefits to change. So, instead of sighing, shouting or screaming, your main task is to simply provide a good example.
