Keynotes for Professionals and Business Audiences


HOW TO DEAL WITH DIFFICULT PEOPLE…
AND LOOK FORWARD TO IT

Difficult people in the workplace can negatively impact employee productivity, morale, and turnover. They can leave you feeling frustrated, angry and at your wit's end. This insightful and humorous workshop will give you powerful new ways of dealing with even the most difficult person, so you can keep your serenity and walk away with a smile on your face -- no matter what anyone else says or does.
 
In this interactive seminar, you will learn:
  • What underlying emotions compel people to behave badly
  • How you should respond to specific types of difficult people
  • Key phrases and methods that diffuse anger, hostility and defensiveness
  • How to establish and maintain boundaries so everyone is treated fairly
  • How to maintain your own center of compassion and use it to help others
Steve Shama's humorous real-life stories and compassionate wisdom will give you a new perspective on stress and how to manage it in every situation — from your own daily stressors to the often unseen stressors of the difficult people you encounter.

"I've worked with Steve for many years and cannot speak more highly of any individual personally and professionally. He is incredibly detailed and punctual which is a TREMENDOUS help when planning an event. He led two sessions and those sessions were sold out and the most talked about out of any we hosted. My customers felt they got "real take away value" from Steve. He is such a inspiration to be around and you cannot leave any encounter with him unmotivated!"
