Business or Personal?
In real life managers would (or should) step in to break up the tension (to put it mildly) between Piers and Omarosa. But we all know that on Celebrity Apprentice it’s all about the ratings. We can learn from this over-the-top, entertaining example of supposed teamwork.
- Managers step in if the fight gets in the way of getting the job done.
- Team members don’t take it personally — it’s just business. But Piers actually admitted that for him it wasn’t business, it was personal!
- Having said that, don’t stifle competition – competition can lead to spectacular success as demonstrated by the over $100k win.
- Don’t ever — I repeat ever — make a personal accusation that is based on a hunch. And whether or not Piers is gay is not an issue and shouldn’t have been implied much less stated outright! And who actually cares? That’s his business, not ours.
If you haven’t been watching, I apologise for making so many Celebrity Apprentice references over the past several weeks. But do read the lessons learned. They should make sense even if you haven’t been tuning in.
Oh! And one more thing. What’s up with Omarosa’s outfits? I’m not the fashion police, but I can recognize what is unprofessional and too suggestive for the workplace. Please — no one should emulate her outfits!
