Like in every other environment that requires individual space and boundary creation, the workplace is not left out.No two people have the same type of attitude towards work or colleagues. It is therefore important to draw a line between what you want and what you don’t want.When colleagues are aware of the things you tolerate and things you do not in the workplace, they try to adjust and maintain the friendly gestures you extend to them and would not want to exceed the limits.Need to set a boundary in your work place? Try out the following tips👇🏻

1. Communicate clearly to colleagues: Be precise about what you want and what you do not.

2. Be professional in your dealings with colleagues: Act with utmost professionalism when handling issues in the workplace.

3. Know your limits: know the maximum you can take and never let people go beyond that.
