Dealing With Difficult People: How to Deal With Nasty Customers, Demanding Bosses and Annoying Co-Workers - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

Proven strategies for handling stressful situations calmly and professionally.

Difficult people are the ones who:

Make us lose our cool
Force us to do things we don't want to do
Prevent us from doing what we want or need to do
Use coercion or manipulation to get their way
Make us feel guilty if we don't "go along"
Make us feel anxious, upset, frustrated, depressed, jealous, inferior or defeated
Make us do their share of the work.

A difficult person, in short, is someone who creates difficulties for others.
