The world of work can be full of drama and challenges…. some of which may include your colleagues.

Do you work with someone ‘difficult’ and struggle to deal with their behaviour?

Do you get that sinking feeling when you have to work closely with them, and feel trapped?

In this workshop we will focus on what makes people's behaviour ‘difficult’, explore tools and techniques to manage our response to their behaviour, and understand the policy framework, resources and supports available to support us in working with difficult behaviour.
