Dealing With Difficult People

Fenman: Dealing With Difficult People Cover

There's no failsafe way to deal with difficult behaviour, but this video offers a four-stage approach that can be used in many different situations. It's also a versatile resource to help people explore their own views and techniques relating to this tricky subject. The video shows how I deal with three different kinds of difficult people. None of the participants (including me) work from scripts. This makes the communication real and 'rough' around the edges - and it makes for compelling viewing.

The trainer's guide provides ready-made activities to help structure a discussion. Involve your participants in practical roleplays. Learning includes: how to confront rather than appease difficult people; how to develop my four stage approach ('analyse, assess, assert, assent') and how to understand and deploy some basic counselling techniques.
