How to Handle Difficult Personalities - Episode 16
Many of us have to deal with difficult personality styles in our professional and personal lives. In order to master and manage our communication effectively to achieve the maximum results we must understand what make these styles difficult and how we can use them to drive solutions for our clients and customers.
The four personality style that we will examine in this episode are:
Victims
Complainers
Egomaniacs
Absentees
Although there are many different personality styles that we need to manage in our careers, these are the ones I most commonly see while working as a consultant for Fortune 500 companies.

The Number One Way to Connect with Your Team Episode 15
Today on the Solutions Oriented Leader Podcast we are going to discuss the number one way you can connect and engage with your team!
Are you communicating and connecting with the people on your team?
Are you talking more than you're listening
In today's email driven world communication is sometimes a one-way conversation instead of a dialogue.
We need to have more conversations with the people on our team and create more of a dialogue to get the information that might possibly take us to the next level.
The reality is that the people doing work for us are in touch with what they're doing on a regular basis.
Sometimes they see things that us leaders don't generally see so we've got to have that dialogue, that conversation and it's the best way to get feedback from the people on your team.
Just remember what my grandmother says we have two ears and one mouth to listen twice as much as we speak.
When you start to listen twice as much as you use too, you can start to hear twice as much as you've heard before and you'll be able to take action on twice as many projects than you ever have before.
The end results double the production, success and satisfaction.
