How to deal with difficult people?

如何和难处的人打交道？

Speak Up to Share Your Point of View

说出自己的观点

It’s important to speak up at a fairly early point in the conversation to make it clear that you share a different point of view. Avoid interrupting, but instead, find a break in the conversation to say,“This is the way I see it.”Then explain your point.

对话一开始就应该明确表示自己持有不同观点。当然，不要打断对方，而应在对话间隙说出“我的看法是……”，然后给出解释。

Stick to the Facts

坚持实事求是

Learning how to deal with difficult people often means sticking to the facts. Avoid saying subjective things such as,“You shouldn’t have…”or“That was way out of line.”Instead, state the facts and remain as objective as possible about the order of events.

和难处的人打交道，最重要的就是坚持实事求是。不要讲主观的话，比如“你不应该……”或“太过分了！” 相反，请阐明事实，尽可能对事件条理保持客观态度。
