Lucinda is joined by author and personal growth expert, Yvonne Guerineau to explore the topic of building positive working relationships in the workplace. Yvonne, an HR professional and author of the book "People in Their Element: How to Create Positive Working Relationships," shares her expertise on the concept of a growth mindset in relationships, breaking away from cultural patterns, and the role of leaders in shaping team dynamics

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Believe that positive working relationships can be developed and improved, and focus on finding ways to make it happen rather than assuming it's impossible.
Recognise the importance of relationships: Understand that building strong relationships is not a soft skill, but a hard skill that has a significant impact on performance, engagement, productivity, attendance, mental health, and overall well-being.
Take deliberate actions to bring people together, whether it's through face-to-face interactions or virtual meetings. Create opportunities for open and meaningful conversations to foster connection and understanding.
Be aware of existing cultural patterns within a team or organisation that may hinder positive relationships. Question why certain behaviours or practices are in place and challenge them if they don't make logical sense or align with the desired outcomes

BEST MOMENTS

"I think the key is to find ways to bring people together."

"Growth mindset essentially is if I believe something, it changes how I therefore behave and therefore affects my outcomes."

"If you're naturally quite talkative and you seek out company, it's easy to call someone up and to arrange to talk and keep that relationship moving." 

"It's about long term healthy relationships, which is what makes work worth doing and, you know, and fun and those things."
