Quick Hits are 10-minute conversations designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to hear other people‘s thoughts on a variety of subjects. In February of 2021 I and the members of my mastermind group thought other people might enjoy listening in on some of the lively conversations we were having. But we realized that no one was going spend 90-minutes listening to us going on about anything and sometimes nothing. Instead, we decided to pick one topic and have a short conversation to share. I took the reigns because facilitating those types of conversations sounded like fun. Over the course of a few months it grew from just members of our mastermind group to four (sometimes three if schedules go sideways) people from various parts of the world and from ”short” to exactly 10-minutes. Thus was born ”Quick Hits” hosted by me, Dr Robyn. I hope to get caught up with posting them here on PodBean at some point. As of this writing, I have over 100 ”episodes.” If you‘d like to see the videos of these conversations, they are available on my YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/DrRobynQuickHits If you have a topic you‘d like to hear discussed, I encouraged you to use the contact page of my website: https://drrobynodegaard.com/ to let me know.

How do you handle it when someone screams or yells at work?

It can depend on who’s doing the yelling.
If the boss does the screaming, it can be very hard, especially with others present. Then the screamer might feel shame and you’ve got to deal with the discomfort it creates.
As author and entrepreneur Coach MJ, one of my panelists on this edition of Quick Hits, says, “We all understand how demeaning that makes everyone feel when they hear that kind of public reprimand.”
If a peer does the screaming, it’s easier to take a pause and talk about it.
Author and empowerment coach Suki Jeffreys offers sage advice on how to handle this situation: “I usually say, ‘Let’s talk about it later.’ Then when later comes, I am very purposeful and say, ‘Let’s talk about what the business problem is…if we can solve that, it’s going to help with your frustration level.”
In some organizations, yelling might be part of the company culture. Billy Ryan, a former MLB executive, told us that yelling was often encourage, especially during draft season, because it indicated passion for a particular player. “As long as that screaming and yelling is done with an eye towards getting the right decision for the team, not for yourself, and it’s done with respect…I think that’s OK.”
Have you ever had to deal with someone screaming at work? What did you do?
