Course overview

We all know someone who can be bossy or a bit of a know-it-all, don’t we? How about someone who always criticizes or doesn’t contribute and lets others pick up the slack? Politely, we describe them as ‘difficult’.

Dealing with pleasant, positive people is easy. But everyone goes through a period in their life when they aren’t at their best or are ‘difficult’, at least from someone else’s point of view.

Whether it’s a ‘one-off’ or a permanently difficult personality you’re dealing with, being able to maintain a relationship with them in the workplace is vital for achieving goals successfully.
