The Workplace Behaviour That's Damaging Your Relationships

Your colleagues think you don't care about them. And honestly? They might be right. You're nodding when someone mentions their parent's surgery, then immediately pivoting to talk about the client meeting. Two weeks later, you've completely forgotten - but they haven't. They notice.

Boosted is the podcast that reveals the unwritten rules of professional success that nobody teaches you in school. Hosted by Trina Boos, founder of Boost Academy of Excellence, this show delivers actionable tips to build your professional presence and advance your career through real workplace scenarios and human stories.

In this episode, Trina shares the pattern she hears about constantly at networking events: professionals who aren't really present when colleagues talk to them. From wandering eyes during conversations to remembering every project deadline but forgetting the personal details your coworkers share, these subtle signs of not truly listening are quietly destroying your professional relationships.

The good news? Being others-focused isn't about grand gestures or technical skills. Trina reveals three warning signs that show you're not really listening, plus three simple solutions that take just 30 seconds but build relationships that last years. Small moments that create real connection - and make people actually want to work with you.

This episode is essential for anyone who wants to transform their workplace relationships and become the colleague everyone wants on their team.
