  • 00:00:12
    to a need we all have four a sense of
  • 00:00:14
    self-worth if we believe that our sense
  • 00:00:17
    of self-worth is being threatened in
  • 00:00:19
    some way and that we can't do our jobs
  • 00:00:22
    properly and so risk losing respect then
  • 00:00:24
    anger is often the result the first
  • 00:00:27
    cause of anger is dissatisfaction with
  • 00:00:29
    the system the way things work around
  • 00:00:31
    you and that seemed to be beyond your
  • 00:00:34
    control anger arises when people feel
  • 00:00:37
    that their organization is too large and
  • 00:00:39
    they feel lost within it competition
  • 00:00:42
    between employees is increasing and
  • 00:00:44
    performance expectations keep on going
  • 00:00:47
    up an organization that acts like a
  • 00:00:50
    bureaucracy usually tries to impose a
  • 00:00:52
    one-size-fits-all approach and because
  • 00:00:55
    we are all different it usually means we
  • 00:00:57
    become frustrated by restrictions and
  • 00:00:59
    rules and that leads to anger
  • 00:01:02
    we all have an innate sense of what's
  • 00:01:05
    fair it's a key evolutionary trait in
  • 00:01:08
    humans so when we perceive unequal
  • 00:01:10
    treatment it makes us angry bonuses
  • 00:01:14
    promotions lack of recognition for a job
  • 00:01:17
    well done and unequal effort by
  • 00:01:19
    coworkers are all key sources of
  • 00:01:22
    workplace anger people hindering our
  • 00:01:25
    goals is another cause of workplace
  • 00:01:27
    anger we're all working toward goals
  • 00:01:29
    some individual and some shared often
  • 00:01:33
    our performance and pay are judged
  • 00:01:35
    against how we do in achieving those
  • 00:01:37
    goals if something gets in the way a
  • 00:01:39
    person a change in procedure or a change
  • 00:01:42
    in the way things are done
  • 00:01:44
    our goals are hindered that causes us to
  • 00:01:47
    become angry short-term goals are
  • 00:01:49
    especially vulnerable they're more
  • 00:01:52
    easily deflected by forces outside your
  • 00:01:54
    control and so they become a more
  • 00:01:57
    frequent source of anger we all have
  • 00:02:00
    different values different views of the
  • 00:02:02
    world but usually at work we try hard to
  • 00:02:05
    create a shared vision that helps us
  • 00:02:08
    work as a team when other people don't
  • 00:02:10
    share that vision or disregard or
  • 00:02:12
    disrespect it

    shared by the team but there are some

    people who won't join in again as humans
  • 00:02:24
    we have a strong instinct for shared
  • 00:02:26
    values and when that's undermined it
  • 00:02:28
    makes us uneasy hierarchies are
  • 00:02:31
    necessary but they're also a very common
  • 00:02:34
    source of anger that's due to people
  • 00:02:36
    feeling that they lack control they're
  • 00:02:38
    always subject to the decisions of
  • 00:02:41
    people above them and sometimes
  • 00:02:43
    superiors use their power badly they can
  • 00:02:46
    make arbitrary decisions or suddenly
  • 00:02:48
    change their instructions or don't
  • 00:02:50
    follow through on promises that makes
  • 00:02:53
    the feeling that you lack control even
  • 00:02:55
    worse especially as your livelihood
