Have you ever thought to yourself, “This job would be so much better if it weren’t for the people?”

When one of Eric’s clients jokingly said this in a recent discussion, they shared a laugh about it. However, Eric later realized it’s not only something he hears often from his clients, but something he’s also said himself in the past.

We thought it would be a good idea to dig deeper into this sentiment on the podcast, but we want to look at it from the perspective of having customers or clients. Businesses need them to be successful, but so many of us wish we could do business without them and the negative things they bring to our workday.

Since we can’t all pull a Henry David Thoreau and live alone in a cabin for years at a time, let’s explore how we can protect ourselves from the naysayers.

Is it possible to change someone’s perspective of you?

If so, how do you do it?

Nayla’s recently had conversations with several clients about changing other people’s perceptions of us and we’ve realized this comes up a lot in our coaching practices so it’s time we covered it on the show.

Nayla even gets vulnerable and shares an example of feedback she received early in her career that she avoided addressing at first and what she learned from that experience.

If you’ve ever been given less-than-ideal feedback and you want to change what people think of you, or you’re responsible for providing feedback to members of your organization, this is one episode you don’t want to miss.
