How to deal with your difficult boss!

Many of us dread going to work because of a challenging relationship with our boss or manager. Considering the amount of time in our lives we spend at work this can cause a great deal of unhealthy stress. There are, however, simple steps you can take that will give you the confidence and skills to assert yourself in an appropriate manner.

How To Manage Difficult People by Alan Fairweather is an essential guide for anyone weighed down by the negative stress that a difficult upward relationship can cause.

With case studies, examples and anecdotes, Alan Fairweather shares his 15 years of managerial experience – and a six step programme of behaviour – to show you how bad situations can be reversed by applying good listening and strong communication skills.

Alan Fairweather comments, “We spend between 70 – 85% of our time interacting with other people so no wonder difficult relationships have such a huge impact on our enjoyment of life. Each person is unique and all are complicated and often driven by emotion, which in the current financial situation can be high. This book shows you how to identify and understand awkward and challenging behaviours and how to manage them.”

Articles available from the author include Ten Tips for Managing a Difficult Boss.

About the author: Alan Fairweather worked in sales and customer service and did the job of a manager for fifteen successful years. He is very much aware that, in our job and in our personal life, we often face apparently rude, impatient and aggressive people. He now spends his time running seminars and workshops, developing skills on how to handle problem people and situations and how to come out of it with increased confidence, improved results and a lighter heart.

How to Manage Difficult People is published by How To Books Ltd www.howtobooks.co.uk. and is available at £10.99 in major bookshops and online retailers across the country. ISBN 978-1-84528-391-9
