Do you know how to work with difficult people? How many of these personalities do you recognize?

• The Know-It-Alls
  They're arrogant and usually have an opinion on every issue. When they're wrong, they get defensive.
• The Passives
  These people never offer ideas or let you know where they stand.
• The Dictators
  They bully and intimidate. They're constantly demanding and brutally critical.
• The Gripers
  Is anything ever right with them? They prefer complaining to finding solutions.
• The "Yes" People
  They agree to any commitment, yet rarely deliver. You can't trust them to follow through.
• The "No" People
  They are quick to point out why something won't work. Worse, they're inflexible.

Of course you recognize them. They're the people you work with, sell to, depend on, live with. Learn to deal with them quickly and confidently at Dealing with Difficult People.
