Establishing and Maintaining Boundaries

An individual’s professional boundaries can be defined in terms of a job description, as long as it clearly outlines basic responsibilities and reporting relationships. However, many times job descriptions define work responsibilities in terms that are too broad and general. In such cases, specific clarification of an individual’s duties and responsibilities will be required before an effective and efficient workplace can be created.

Your professional boundaries become more clearly defined when you can answer all of these questions:

• Who gives you your assignments?
• To whom do you report?
• Who gives you feedback?
• Who sets your work priorities?
• How are your company and client personal information kept secure?
• Do you know how to treat all staff members fairly without positive or negative feelings influencing your decisions?

When professional boundaries and priorities have been clearly defined, it’s very likely that a group can function effectively, even in the absence of its leader. If everyone on your team understands what to do, how to do it, and when to do it, then team members will feel safe in their roles.  A smooth functioning organization is a tangible demonstration of their team leader’s commitment to their success, which creates trust in leadership. It is the responsibility of every team leader to set the tone of the group by clearly defining acceptable and unacceptable workplace behavior. An effective leader understands that failing to define boundaries, having no boundaries, or having inappropriately rigid boundaries can have an unfavorable impact on their organization and employees. In some cases boundaries need to be firm. For example, lying, stealing, or verbally or physically abusing others is never allowed. It may sound as if the responsibility to create a smooth functioning organization falls only upon the team leaders; however every team member has a role to play as well. It is the responsibility of every individual team member to be willing to speak up to a colleague or supervisor and clearly define their problem and help find a resolution that works for everyone.

Another important area that should be negotiated is interpersonal boundaries, because professional and interpersonal boundaries substantially impact workplace productivity and the quality of social environment. Interpersonal boundary parameters include:

• The tone people use with each other.
• The attitude and approach co-workers use with each other.
• The ability to focus on work objectives even with people you don’t like or with whom you are having personal conflict.
• The ability to effectively set limits with others who have poor boundaries.
• Clearly defining the consequences when a boundary is violated and sticking to it.

Boundaries will have no meaning if your actions don’t back up your words.
