How to Deal with Difficult People

Some people just drain your energy. Whether it’s a boss who micromanages every move, a friend who always turns the conversation back to themselves, or that one coworker who thrives on conflict — difficult people are everywhere. But here’s the thing: you don’t have to suffer through it.

Gill Hasson’s How to Deal with Difficult People isn’t just another book full of vague advice like “stay calm” or “ignore them.” This is a practical guide. Real tools. Real talk. Real strategies.

According to research, 70% of people say they deal with a difficult person at work daily. That’s not just annoying — it’s draining, stressful, and can impact your mental health, performance, and relationships. But you don’t have to be stuck in reactive mode. This book gives you tools to set boundaries, communicate clearly, and hold your ground without losing your cool.

Hasson shows you exactly how to deal with passive-aggressiveness, criticism, manipulation, and flat-out rudeness. What I loved most? It doesn’t assume you’re the problem — but it does put the power back in your hands. And that feels good.

You’ll finish this book with confidence and clarity. You’ll stop dreading certain conversations and start taking control of them.
