How to deal with rude people?

We all sometimes need to interact with mean, rude and horrible people.
Sometimes this is a part of our work, other times it is somebody in our family.

Here are 3 pointers that will help you to deal better with these situations.

1. No feedback is a feedback. If you expect certain behaviours or comments not to happen again- you need to voice it out.
2. People do not need to understand you to respect you. Even when they don’t get where you coming from, they still should respect you. Communicate this clearly to them.
3. Avoid them if possible. If this is not achievable, minimise interactions to minimum. The more people will react that way- the bigger the change the message will be received and encourage change of behaviour.

If you have a challenging relationship with your boss, somebody in your team or a family member and you are looking for better communication methods to deal with unwelcome behaviour- get in touch. Creating bespoke strategies unique for your life circumstances is my speciality!
