Programs
from Betsy Hedinger
Getting Along with Difficult People
This program outlines skills that will help participants get along
with almost anyone. Improve productivity and create a better work
environment by learning to manage interpersonal conflict created
by difficult people. Betsy will show how a great deal of difficulty
in relationships comes from people not speaking the same language
as their difficult person. Once people teach one another their
language, they find a lot less gets "lost in the translation."
Participants will become so much more comfortable dealing with
difficult people, they will wonder why they wasted so many years
avoiding them.
Learn to identify different types of difficult people and the
most effective ways to deal with them based on:
• Real understanding with real solutions for real people
• The need they're expressing through their difficult behavior
• The power differential - is this person a superior, someone
you supervise, or a peer?
• The best time, the best place, the best method to address
the problem
Getting the Most Out of Criticism
In even the least tactful criticism there is a grain of truth.
In this seminar, Betsy teaches the best way to get back at your
accuser - by letting their criticism help you up the ladder of
success. Participants will also learn techniques and skills to
conduct difficult communication like task correction or performance
evaluation while leaving the other person's dignity intact and
without being perceived as critical.
The High Cost of Anger
At work, anger is responsible for loss of productivity, team breakdowns,
absenteeism, job dissatisfaction and job turnover. Even issues
like employee theft, thought to be just a function of low morality,
is often a function of low morale induced by anger. At home anger
is a threat to the health and sometimes the life of home relationships.
Most people are stuck in whatever anger patterns they've had all
their lives.
In this seminar, Betsy will help participants:
• Identify the causes of their anger - the current causes
and old hurts and resentments
• Identify "triggers" - recognizing what happens
right before the onset of anger gives people a head start on heading
anger off
• Learn how to stop destructive blame, threats, violence,
and excuses so people can move toward solutions by taking personal
responsibility
• Get their needs met, their projects finished, etc., without
having to resort to anger
