Join 21CSLA as we explore Alan Willett’s book titled “Leading The Unleadable:  How To Manage Mavericks, Cynics, Divas, and Other Difficult People.”  This book turns this seemingly difficult chore of managing difficult people into a straight-forward process that gently, yet effectively, improves behaviors. It all begins with understanding a core truth: most people actually want to contribute results, not cause headaches. When the manager resets to that fundamental principle, the potential for change can reveal itself in even the most hopeless situations. Whether it comes from direct reports or people above, outbursts, irrational demands, griping, and other disruptions need to be dealt with - and it's your responsibility to do it.  This is a session you won’t want to miss!
