Getting Along With Others On Your Project Team

If you are on a project team at work, it can be an absolute nightmare if you find that you do not get along with most of the people on your team. Especially if this project will be lasting for a while, and if you will be with these people each day, it is vital that you get along with them. In fact, you can follow these tips to get along with even the worst of them - without actually liking them at all!

One of the first things you need to make sure you recognize is that it is not always necessary for you to prove that you are right. If you are on a team with a "know it all" who (naturally!) tends to be wrong most of the time, this can be especially difficult, but it is still important. Oftentimes, the majority of the members on a project team will be absolutely wrong about something, but this "something" will be something that has no real bearing on the project; you will begin to notice this as you realize that you do not always have to prove you are right. In this way, you need to pick your battles, only correcting the others when it is absolutely necessary that you do so.

Picking your battles also extends beyond letting people know when they are wrong, as you will likely encounter conflicts and frustrations with the way some of the others work. In the end, it is better - for you, and for the project - that you only assert your strong opinions when it is necessary. It will pay off in the long run to always be "the bigger man" - as difficult as this can be when you are around these same people every day!

Being the "bigger man" also extends to those times when someone else on your project team tries to take credit for work they did not actually do. In the end, your superiors will come to be aware of who did all the work, and they will also come to be aware of who did little or nothing.

Being on a project team often comes to be about more than just completing the project well; it also comes to be about surviving to the end! When you follow these tips, you will be able to survive and even thrive to the end of the project.
