Open the appIn the high-pressure world of IB, asserting your personal boundaries with superiors is crucial for your well-being. To do so effectively:
- Communicate your limits clearly, without being confrontational. Use "I" statements to express your needs respectfully.
- Establish availability by setting specific times when you're reachable, promoting work-life balance.
- Seek support from HR or a mentor if necessary, especially when boundaries are repeatedly crossed.
How have you handled setting boundaries in your professional life?
Be proactive: Clearly communicate your limits upfront in a respectful and non-confrontational manner. Using "I" statements, such as "I need to prioritize some downtime this weekend," can help express your needs professionally. Establish boundaries around time: Define when you’re available and when you’re off-limits for non-urgent work, ensuring you're reachable during set times but maintaining personal space. Leverage support systems: If boundaries continue to be challenged, consult HR or a trusted mentor to navigate the situation effectively.
