How to Deal With Difficult People

Attend this webinar to learn specific tips, techniques, strategies, and tools for interacting with difficult people effectively, to both get the job done and have less stress in your life. Move from frustration and overwhelm to confidence, ease, and empowerment.

Why Should You Attend:

Let’s be honest here … you probably have people in your life ... that, if they would just go away! … your life would be easier?

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.
