Workshop

Handling Difficult People

Interactions with difficult people can cause emotional turmoil, physical tension and mental anguish. Sometimes the frustration and stress can cause you to do or say things you later regret, and can make the situation even more difficult.

Attend a free seminar and learn how to take control of the situation before it erodes your mental and physical health.

You will learn techniques for handling difficult people at home and in the workplace with skill, including:

  • Establishing Boundaries
  • Collaborating Effectively
  • Resolving Conflict
  • Managing Your Emotions

This is a great opportunity to increase your emotional intelligence to deal with difficult people and create more satisfying results!
