A HuffPost article revealed the four phrases that are the most frequently used in the workplace that you might not realize are being dismissive.
In the article, Career Coach Becca Carnahan said, quote “Condescension in the workplace generally comes from three places ― not being aware of how your communication style impacts others, frustration manifesting itself as passive aggressiveness or a desire to lift oneself up."
Are you guilty of saying these condescending phrases at work?
- "I'm sorry you feel that way."
- "We've already tried doing that, and it didn't work."
- "You'll understand when you've done this longer."
- "Don't worry about those details- I'll handle it."
