We all encounter difficult people. Whether you are a supervisor, a customer service professional, or you have a challenging coworker, it's important to know how to rise above your initial emotional reaction and turn negative situations into positive outcomes. Topics include understanding why we label people as difficult; types of difficult people; tools and techniques for resolving issues; coping strategies for the effects of difficult people; conflict management strategies; and practical application.

This is the first course in the Supervision Certificate (6 Class Series).
