Manager Insists On 6-8 Hour Video Calls Daily, Employee Hesitates To Go To Hr: 'she Runs Everything She Does By Me'
There is such a thing as overcommunication.
One of the most valuable skills that employees in all kinds of industries can learn is how to communicate effectively, whether that is about making appropriate business decisions or honing that so-called water-cooler talk. People are more likely to want to be around those colleagues who seem to know what they are talking about and are generally pleasant company.
At the same time, one of the most valuable communication skills to master in the workplace is also knowing when to shut up. At a certain point, most employees just want to get their tasks done and go home in peace. Nobody enjoys being around a clingy coworker, not only because they can be annoying, but also because it can get to a point where they are being counterproductive.
It is, of course, valuable to develop decent relationships with colleagues, and to be able to chat with them about things other than work from time to time. However, most have a limit when it comes to small talk and indeed speaking on professional matters that may not be in their job description. Being able to take the hint when it is time to work independently is necessary at every level.
