Amy G. writes about how to work with difficult people in her new book Getting Along. In each episode she coach a guest who's dealing with a difficult colleague like the woman whose manager kept leaving her out of important conversations. By the end of the episode they have the tools they need to build healthier relationships at work and you can learn from them too. Check out Getting Along right here in the Women at Work podcast feed.
To cap off our Getting Along series (see the last four episodes in our feed if you missed them), Amy Gallo offers advice, in front of a live audience, on how to deal with “difficult” colleagues. She talks with Amy Bernstein about the different types of difficult coworkers (from the tormentor to the know-it-all) and then answers questions from several members of the audience about the specific situations they’re facing. If you’re navigating a tough work relationship right now and don’t know how to turn things around, this episode is for you.
