You're a Civilian Now, Stop being a "Yes Man"
Manage episode 396116432 series 3419309
Did the military amplify your already “people pleasing tendencies”?& by that I mean, were you afraid to say no to leadership or to others you worked with?
It is taboo in the military to do so because those relationships carry a lot of weight and you don’t want to be “that guy.”
Your relationship with leaders had a lot riding on it:
- Watch/ post schedules
- Promotions/advancements
- Current work roles
These may all have been dependent on how well you were liked. This could have led to people pleasing or being a ‘yes man’.
People pleasing and not setting boundaries with work is something we need to leave behind when we get out of the military.. I know it isn’t that simple!
