It’s hard to set boundaries.  

Or at least that’s the story I often tell myself.  And a lot of people feel the same way.  But it’s probably because of the way that a lot of people approach setting boundaries that makes it difficult.

A lot of people are either afraid to set boundaries because they don’t want to hurt someone’s feelings or risk annoying people.  Sometimes people set boundaries in a way that comes from frustration, which may not get you the result you’re looking for.  

Or sometimes people set boundaries in a way that tries to control other people, whether they know it or not.

So today, I want to talk a bit about what boundaries actually are, and then share some ways to effectively set boundaries at work that work

Many people think that boundaries are about what YOU ask OTHER PEOPLE to do or not do.  Right? It’s about controlling other people’s behaviour.

But that’s not a boundary at all.

Boundaries are about how YOU will behave when a situation arises

In this episode, I talk about what work boundaries really are,  five tips on setting them effectively so they work every time, and give lots of examples of how to do it effectively.
