"The difficult people we encounter can be our greatest teachers." - Eileen Anglin
Difficult people are found in every walk of life. They come in many forms.
Given that we can't avoid or eliminate them from our world, the next best solution is to learn how to effectively deal with them. Learning how to recognize what they are doing, and why that’s creating so much difficulty for you, and those around you, is the first step.
From that recognition, you can create a plan for how to shift the impact they have on you and the environment. There are a host of specific tools, techniques, tactics and strategies that will work when you want to shift the relationship and outcome. Learning to use the right tool, technique, etc. in the right situation is key to creating positive change.
Interacting with them is exhausting and frustrating - even thinking about interacting with them is discouraging and causes you to despair the situation will never get any better.
We all have those people in our lives. The reality is, having them out of your life is not practical - they may be your boss, staff, colleague, customer, vendor, friend, or family member.
You've probably thought to yourself - "what can I do?" You avoid them … you spend inordinate amounts of time, cognitive and emotional energy, trying to figure out work-arounds and effective strategies, but none of it is working.
You want to just throw up your hands and say - "That's it, I’m done".
Again, not practical.
Here's some good news. There are practical solutions.
This webinar is filled with tips, techniques, strategies and tools that will make your dealings with difficult people much easier. You will no longer have to say to yourself "I just don't know what to do", because you will have a toolbox full of responses that will be game changers.
You'll know where to direct your energy, instead of feeling frustrated and at a loss about what do to, you will feel empowered with very clear and effective responses.
You'll learn how to diagnose exactly what the person is doing and why it is so frustrating for you. You'll begin to see patterns that you hadn't seen before. Specific language to use in specific situations. What skills you can learn to get on equal footing. Create a plan with specific targeted timing that will get you the result you want.
Attend this webinar and take the first step in relieving the frustration and exasperation … and making your life a whole lot easier.
