Demeaning others – Shatter the personality and confidence
Have you ever been in a
meeting when suddenly someone says something that has an edge to it that is
directed towards you or another person? It might not be said – perhaps it is a
gesture, like someone tossing their eyes at something you said or laughing at
someone else’s argument. Most people have experienced these kinds of behaviors,
and it can make one feel very unpleasant, and this type of behavior is called
Demeaning Others.
Most of the times, these
demeaning behaviors arise from concealed emotions. A person will become upset
about some issue and instead of sharing those feelings with the person with
whom they are having the conflict they decide to keep the emotions to
themselves. The emotions tend to aggravate and grow over time. Eventually, they
leak out as demeaning behaviors. Since the emotions can fester for some time,
there is usually a period between the initial incident that triggers the
emotion and the display of demeaning behaviors. This make it more difficult
and confusing for the person who is on the receiving end of these behaviors.
Now the thing is how to
reduce the demeaning behaviors. Once aware of the commencement of emotions, a
person can then use cooling techniques like cognitive reappraisal to lower the strength
of those emotions. They can also learn to use different constructive behaviors
like CDP which means that, expressing Emotions to share the way they are
feeling with the other person. By sharing how they feel with the other person,
they escape the trap of suppressing the emotions which leads to them festering
and eventually coming out in destructive ways. People are sometimes reluctant
to express their emotions to another for fear of looking weak or perhaps of intensifying
the conflict. By using specific techniques like different Situational and
behavioral models, which help most of the creative leaderships and through
these they resolved their serious issues very effectively.
