領導者，應該刻意地鼓勵和獎勵合作

很多人拒絕同事的幫助是有很多原因的。有些員工喜歡自力更生，有些人不想有義務回報對他們的青睞，還有一些人不信任同事的動機。但這些態度會提高員工工作倦怠的風險，阻礙工作中的社會關係。

作為領導者，你可以鼓勵和認識合作的努力，通過喚起他們的注意力，解釋他們是如何為組織的目標和使命做出貢獻的。

在你需要幫助的時候，一定要表現出你願意接受的意願；如果員工看到他們的領導做這件事，他們更有可能做到這一點。並且小心不要發出混雜的資訊：如果讓獨自一人工作的員工比那些給予和接受支持的人可以更快速地獲得獎勵，人們會發現這種差異——那麼，他們會重新回去自己做出第一名。

Managers, Deliberately Encourage and Reward Collaboration

There are a lot of reasons why someone might refuse help from a colleague. Some employees prefer to be self-reliant, others don’t want to feel obligated to return the favor, and still others don’t trust their coworkers’ motives. But these attitudes can increase employees’ risk of burnout and hinder social connections at work.

As a manager, you can encourage and recognize collaborative efforts by calling attention to them and explaining how they contribute to the organization’s goals and mission.

Be sure to demonstrate your willingness to accept help when you need it; employees are more likely to do it if they see their leaders doing it. And be careful not to send mixed messages: If employees who go it alone advance more quickly than those who give and receive support, people will pick up on that discrepancy — and they’ll go back to looking out for number one.
