I have a question about the episode The Power Of Possible - Kat Cole | The Knowledge Project 117 and the clip Communication and Understanding. I'm also frustrated about how I acted—responsive and thankful but also annoyed—when Kaitlyn suggested I do something differently. Overall, I have a weird relationship or connection with one manager at work. I'm going to change how I've been acting. I'm just an intern, but it's not obvious; everyone else loves me, and I love them. It's just this one person, and I need to change my attitude. How can I improve my relationship with this manager?
