Navigating office relationships can sometimes seem
like walking through a mine field. Some colleagues are highly
dysfunctional, incredibly obnoxious—or both. Despite that, you have to
deal with them and still get your job done. The book, “Dealing with People You Can't Stand: How to Bring Out the Best in People at their Worst”(McGraw-Hill
Professional/available now) profiles the classic suspects. Better yet,
it offers practical advice for not only co-existing with these
individuals, but managing them so they can provide value to the
organization. Authors Dr. Rick Kirschner and Dr. Rick Brinkman contend
that the first step in overcoming an insufferable co-worker is
controlling your response, rather than controlling your colleague. The
authors are naturopathic physicians who advise corporate clients such as
IBM, LucasFilm, Quaker Oats and the U.S. Army on conflict management
and communications strategies. Here are six classic "can't stand 'em"
types and how to work effectively with them.Difficult-CoWorkers
