The Dealing With Difficult People™ workshop is an engaging onsite training seminar that provides concrete tools for handling challenging interactions with staff, customers or suppliers. By better understanding causes of difficult behavior and the resulting reactions, participants learn to anticipate & prevent conflict escalations.
By exploring how people differ in their needs and perceptions participants can approach difficult situations with a calm & positive demeanor. Participants also learn to focus on productive results in relationships rather than on challenging elements of the interaction. Through a deep exploration of attitudes, tools and strategies for working productively with all types of people, each participant grows in their professionalism, poise and productivity.
