One day, a new colleague joined her team and attempted to take all the leadership Lily had achieved over the years...

¿Did you know that Lily always cheats on her essays using others to do their work? Thank god I am postulating for her role at this company

I had no idea... that's very strange, she seemed to be a very good team-worker

Instead of Lily reproaching her, fighting or reporting without consulting... She decided to talk to her partner and solve the situation in an assertive way; talking.

I'm sorry for what I said... I thought that by saying all that, they would give me your role... but now I see that it was not correct, I am very sorry Lily, I will never speak ill of you or anyone again.

Don't worry Alice, we all make mistakes. Just keep in mind that the result is more rewarding if you have achieved it with effort and commitment! Anyway, thank you for the apology and I hope we can be good colleagues from now on.

From that day on, Lily had an anti-bullying regulation put in place in the office and her relationship with Alice improved to this day.

Teamwork is much better when we all collaborate and treat each other with respect!
