Why do people play games? Scripted Roles Protection/Denial/Self-defense Meet their needs: Fear of rejection Wanting to be of help To feel superior

The Drama [Game] Triangle Unspoken Message “ I am better than you, you are inferior” OK/Not OK Unspoken Message “ I know more than you, you are inadequate” OK/Not OK Unspoken Message “ I am helpless, you are better than me” Not OK/ OK Victim Not OK/Ok Persecutor OK/Not OK Drama Triangle Rescuer OK/Not OK

Victim Not OK/Ok Persecutor OK/Not OK Drama Triangle Rescuer OK/Not OK Victim allows other to take responsibility for choices, actions and behavior. Blames; therefore gives up all personal power. Persecutor sets unrealistic, or unclear, expectations that cannot be met. Demotes; therefore prevents success in others. Rescuer does for others what others are capable of doing for themselves. Enables; therefore arrests development. By accepting or offering an invitation into the Drama Triangle you are off and running in a negative spiral of dysfunction.

Exercise Think back to a recent time when you were part of a drama triangle or you witnessed one Who started as rescuer, victim, and persecutor? Did roles get switched? What would you do differently to stay out of the drama triangle or get out of it?

Employee (Or 3 rd Party) Turns Persecutor (Complains rescuer is not performing their role sufficiently and adequately; nor with kindness) Employee as the Victim (Feels either entitled or resentful) Leader to the Rescue (Motivated by control, guilt, fear, altruism) Rescuer leader gets caught on the pointed edge of the triangle!

The Play….. C+G=R S X P The Con + the Gimmick = a Response, then the Switch, the crossover, and then…the Payoff!

A Situation… The angry boss, as Identified Persecutor, is scolding and embarrassing the secretary. But secretly the boss is the Victim of the secretary’s careless work, and of his/her own job insecurity based on office production; and is also secretly a Rescuer in attempts to train employees to meet high standards and by openly complaining instead of secretly firing the secretary.

P ( R ) ( V ) Boss C + G = R S X P Demands High Performance Wants to please ScoldingBoss becomes rescuer Secretary becomes persecutor I am better than you/you are inferior Insecurities held a bay….

(P ) ( R ) V Secretary C + G = R S X P I am incapable InsecurityYou dirty rotten scoundrel (covertly) Secretary becomes persecutor Boss becomes victim You are better than me, but you NEED me Boss needs me to feel good about himself….

Don’t play the game

How to avoid the drama triangle Gather all the facts Take responsibility Be self-aware Maintain boundaries Balance respect for others and yourself Accept that others may have things to teach you Recognize human complexity/know your people Engage in dialogue Engage in solution-focused thinking Collaborate / Negotiate agreement

The triangle of compassion, this is the way out of the game, the dysfunction. This is the path to healthy relationships, productive conversations and leadership. Vulnerability is the willingness to accept a helping hand, while accepting responsibility. Transparency; not redirection Reaching out acknowledges others need a helping hand at times. Assistance; not disempowerment. This is the ability to stand in one’s own power and feel one’s own potency, without the need to push others down. Empowerment; not dominance. Vulnerable Power/ Potency The OK Corral Reaching Out

A Situation… The angry boss, as Identified Persecutor, is scolding and embarrassing the secretary. But secretly the boss is the Victim of the secretary’s careless work, and of his/her own job insecurity based on office production; and is also secretly a Rescuer in attempts to train employees to meet high standards and by openly complaining instead of secretly firing the secretary.

The OK Corral  What specifically does the secretary need to move her out of victim mode?  What specific action does the boss need to take that would move him out of the persecutor behavior?  What needs to happen to move the boss out of his victim fears?  What will remove the secretary’s ability to persecute?

Democracy must include an objective selection committee so that the best leaders could be presented by their peers…
