Anyone involved with others at work or at home who wants to tackle difficult behaviour more effectively will enjoy this course. It'll help you successfully settle those difficult interactions that just wont resolve themselves.
With video demonstrations to support the lectures you'll quickly learn to handle apparently impossible situations where people just wont co-operate: bosses, co-workers, customers, patients or members of the public who act in unpleasant, unpredictable ways.
And it isnt limited to the workplace; if you ever find yourself struggling in your personal relationships there's help here too.
This course tells you how to identify seven common difficult characters, recognise clues to the patterns in their behaviour, and most importantly, how to understand how to prepare yourself, so that you become more effective more often in your relationships.
This 90-minute course includes 12 video lectures. You'll also be provided with concise and clearly written downloads to help you practice some recommended exercises and enhance your skills. And there's a reading list if you want to take your study further.
