Emotional Contagion in the Workplace
- Leaders tend to spread emotions in a powerful, widespread manner at the workplace, with negative emotional contagion being more contagious and also common.
- One needs to be aware of the toxic and mentally draining nature of certain coworkers and avoid contact with them.
- If the whole workplace is toxic, and the emotional exhaustion is unbearable, one can think of leaving the job as well.
- Try to balance the negative by deploying positive emotional boosters.
- We can also be nice to fellow workers, diner waitresses, or other people serving us, who may have had a rough day.
