Working With Passive-Aggressive Personalities

Learn how best to leverage the energy and passion of passive-aggressive personalities to produce win-win results.

Working with people can be like diffusing an explosive device. Everyone has the potential to blow if mishandled. When the natural tendency to be passive meets a strong desire for fairness or equity or the need to win or be right, the conditions become ripe for potential disaster. Handling passive-aggressive situations passively leads to enabling undesirable behavior. Confronting passive-aggressive people may set off a powder keg of emotion and resistance. This material will help you uncover the roots of passive-aggressive behavior, disarm the aggressor, open up the passivist, and move the conversation into the assertive zone - even creating a long-term culture where communication is safe and productive.
