Abstract

Employee resentment is a growing issue affecting both staff and leaders in the workplace. Resentment can arise from feeling undervalued or unfairly treated, leading to negative emotions like anger and frustration. To address resentment towards colleagues, individuals can pinpoint the source, step outside themselves to consider alternative perspectives, focus on solutions, communicate constructively, and ultimately consider letting go and forgiving to move forward positively. Resolving resentments can improve workplace relationships, communication, and overall well-being for individuals and teams. [Extracted from the article]
