Handling Difficult People

Learn how to identify, work with, and effectively manage the different behavioural styles of people to build a positive atmosphere with open and honest communication. Explore specific difficult behaviours and how you, as an individual, respond.

You will learn how to spot potential difficult situations and defuse them before they flare up. You’ll gain practical skills to respond to on-the-job conflicts quickly and effectively. Other areas covered in the course include assertiveness, coping with difficult people and exploring different power relationships.
