Introduction

Why Read This Book?

Do you have difficult people in your life? Do you sometimes feel frustrated by others behavior or choices? Do you ever struggle when trying to communicate or work with a colleague, team member, boss, or customer? Do you have problems that remain unresolved despite your best efforts? Do you avoid dealing with issues because of fear of conflict? Do you want to become a better leader?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this book is for you.

Communication is the core of all management and leadership. Effective communication unites teams and provides a framework for a vision and goal to be met. Noted program manager authority Rita Mulcahy states, Project managers spend 90 percent of their time on communication-related activities. I would extrapolate from that and say that all good leaders spend 90 percent or more of their time communicating.

To be a good leader, you must be able to communicate effectively to all different types of people, using different styles and mediums. Keeping your organization or team focused on goals and avoiding the mire of drama and frustration depends on successfully dealing with even the most difficult people. This book teaches you how to present yourself, how to listen and respond to others, how to recognize stress in yourself and others, and how to resolve conflict. You will learn strategies for dealing with the ten most challenging personality types. These include the Manipulator, Gossiper, Naysayer, Controller, Perfectionist, Yes-Man, Drama Queen, Recluse, Whiner, and Liar. You will receive advice on how to adapt your communication to work with these difficult individuals and resolve conflict in a way that fosters greater teamwork and keeps everyone moving forward for the good of the organization.

As a senior executive with thirty-five years of expertise in organizational transformation, I have seen the results of good communication techniques and the consequences of poor ones. The ideas presented here come from years worth of notes, gathered as I grew and learned how to be a better leader and communicator. I have worked in environments spanning the cybersecurity, defense, intelligence, government, and commercial industries. The businesses might have differed, but the communication issues I witnessed were remarkably similar from organization to organization. I have tackled dysfunctional teams and made them more unified, productive, and happy. It is an amazing feeling to see how some simple changes in communication make a huge difference in team unity, morale, productivity, teamwork, and happiness.

I am excited to share my knowledge of overcoming personality and communication issues to help you create a better working environment. The communication techniques described in this book draw on wide experience and interviews with leaders in numerous industries. From the information in this book, you will be able to understand and communicate with the diverse individuals in your organization, as well as identify their varying needs, their preferences, and the styles of communication that will be most effective for them.
