The workplace is where you spend a large part of your day, and sometimes, some people manipulate you without you even realising it. Let us take a closer look at five types of manipulators. Tap to see!
This type of manipulator overwhelms you with compliments and attention. When you feel indebted, it becomes easier for them to influence your decisions.
Manipulators use triangulation by involving a third person to stir up drama or confusion. The aim is to turn people against each other, making them uncertain about whom to trust.
The manipulator tries to undermine your skills or knowledge to boost their reputation. This can lead to a toxic work environment where your contributions are not recognised.
It involves emotional pressure to get someone to do what the manipulator wants. This tactic can be especially damaging because it plays on your emotions.
Some manipulators lure you in with promises of amazing opportunities that turn out to be too good to be true. They may present false information or exaggerate the benefits to get you on board.
To protect yourself from manipulators, it’s essential to establish clear boundaries and base your responses on facts rather than emotions. Focus on maintaining transparency at all times.
