Approval-seeking territory

You're in this territory if you:

• Change or downplay your point of view to appease your boss or agree with the rest of the team in meetings.
• Compliment colleagues’ work, so they’ll like you.
• Always say yes to requests for your time, even if it means compromising your professional boundaries.
• Fail to speak up if you’ve been treated unfairly by a co-worker or boss.
• Become upset or insulted when someone disagrees with you or heavily edits your work.
