How to Cope When Your Values Clash with Your Co-workers

In an increasingly polarized world, workplaces are becoming a microcosm of the broader societal divide. As we spend a significant portion of our lives at work, it’s not uncommon to find ourselves in situations where our core values clash with those of our co-workers. The result? A decline in respect, engagement, and productivity. But a recent study from The Ohio State University’s Fisher College of Business offers a glimmer of hope for “value minorities” in the workplace.
The Challenge of Values Clash in the Workplace
The study, led by Tracy Dumas, delves into the challenge faced by those whose values, be they political, religious, or stemming from other significant life areas, do not align with the majority in their organization. These values are deeply rooted in one’s sense of self and are challenging to change. When value minorities perceive a lack of respect in their workplace, it negatively impacts their engagement and overall job performance.
The Power of Self-Disclosure in Overcoming Values Clash
The research uncovered a potent solution for value minorities struggling in the workplace: self-disclosure. Sharing personal information unrelated to conflicting values helps create a sense of connection with co-workers, fostering respect, and ultimately improving engagement.
Study Methodology and Key Findings
The study was conducted through various settings, including full-time employees, student project groups, and undergraduate students, with consistent results across the board. Participants were asked to imagine working closely with colleagues of the same rank and were categorized into two groups: those with conflicting values and those with similar values. The critical variable was whether they engaged in self-disclosure by discussing non-work topics.
