"I attended your 'Dealing with Difficult People' workshop, I was also a victim of extreme workplace bullying for over 3 years. The workshop help me understand why the people that could help me didn't, they didn't have the skills required to deal with this very difficult situation, so I needed to take charge and deal with them in their personal styles. I am pleased to report that after the workshop I sought EPA counseling and finally found the courage to stand up for myself. My counselor helped me to understand that I wasn't the problem and if it wasn't me, it would be someone else on the receiving end. Bullying is so soul destroying and I feel for anyone who has been a victim, the impact on your health is enormous and the stress flows into all areas of your life. Your workshop started me on the right path to putting a stop to it. I am happy to report that the Bully has finally been dealt with and I have now returned to work after 2 1/2 months of stress leave. Steps have been put in place to protect me and all other stakeholders in our company from any reoccurrence of the bullying behaviour. I hope my fellow 'Dealing with Difficult People' bully victim has found a new, exciting and safe workplace and is now looking forward to the future. Bullying takes all the 'JOY' out of life." - Sheryl
"The Dealing with Difficult People and Tricky Situations course made me take stock of my own skill base related to my particular personality type and gave me strategies not only to develop my own areas of need, but also the skills to work more effectively with the other personality types I am confronted with on a daily bases." - Grant Wharry, H&S Manager/Training Manager, Mainzeal Property & Construction Ltd
". . . give me some very good insights
in dealing with difficult people. I am afraid it is starting to
turn me into a little bit of a psychologist though as I move from
looking at the visible issue to what is really bugging this person!
Great skills to acquire and well worth the time." -

interpersonal interactions and skills all day and everyday. It is
good to be reminded how to go about this positively. I have learnt
that I’m okay, they’re ok and not to make it personal.
Find the problem and a way to the solution." -
