Episode 22: Personal Space
After last week's toilet episode, we thought we'd keep the personal space conversation going. This time, we're talking about the pros and cons of open floor plans in the workplace. How does boundary setting work when the vast majority of people are rubbing elbows side by side on the floor? How do people be authentic when some people are naturally boisterous and others like library-level quiet?
Key Takeaways:
Before asking someone for a 5-minute convo at work, check the time! Are they just arriving and need time to settle in? Are they about to leave?
Before jumping into a convo happening near you, wait...were you just eavesdropping?
Sandy doesn't like open office workspaces!
