Dealing with Difficult Personalities - Sun and Planets Spirituality AYINRIN
Leadership is one of those jobs that no matter how good the pay, it is never enough for the amount of personality issues you deal with. Well this morning as I had the honor of dealing with a difficult personality, I managed to garner a few nuggets of wisdom.

Remember they have a point
While this nugget is hard to swallow when the difficult personality has decided to engage in spiteful, project harming behavior it is still a point worth considering. There is something that they are mad or offended about and as a leader your job is to wade through the snide remarks and childish behavior to find out what it is. At the end of the day a difficult person feels like they are not being heard and we know ignoring them doesn’t help, so why not try listening?
There was a reason you hired them
When you are having trouble getting to the bottom of the issue, remember there is a reason that you hired them. They brought something special and meaningful to your team, so you made an investment in this person. You owe it to your company and your staff to try to work it out. Think of it like a dysfunctional marriage, you know you partnered with this person for a reason and it’s a choice to let any partnership dissolve.
They are as frustrated as you
The truth is that behind every difficult person is someone who doesn’t understand why you don’t understand what the problem is. This is a basic communication issue and as we rise to positions of leadership, often we stop trying to understand the other point of view. Think about when you are not happy with a service, how they handle the complaint can become more important than the complaint. The same premise applies to a difficult personality. What may have started out as a small annoyance has now gone nuclear (as my kids say), because you dismissed it.
Relationships change
A company in forward momentum pushes their employees to learn and grow, what we forget is that growth brings challenges. You can’t encourage someone to fly and then clip their wings. You have to find that elusive balance between freedom and company constraint and some bosses are better at it than others. Sometimes a difficult personality has simply outgrown their role and as leader, your job is to find the next phase of their position where they can continue to grow. I’m not saying reward bad behavior, but situations are what we create and if you want something different you have to make it.
Difficult people are a nightmare for many leaders but when you take the emotion out of it and see just the situation, your perspective becomes a useful tool. People are people and that never changes, but how you handle situations makes all the difference.
