Managing Your Perfectionism
Learn to overcome perfectionist tendencies to preserve your wellbeing and relationships
Description
Do you often feel the need to do everything perfectly? What happens when a colleague doesn’t meet your high standards? Or when you don’t achieve your goals for the quarter?
Perfectionism is the strongly held desire to do things to an impossibly high level. When these standards aren’t met, it can lead to harsh feelings of self-criticism, inadequacy and anxiety. This in turn can affect a person’s job performance and personal life.
