How to deal with difficult people?
如何和难处的人打交道?
Behave Respectfully
言行举止要得体
No matter how difficult the conversation gets, maintain respectful behavior at all times. You can’t control how the other person behaves or reacts, but you can control your own behavior. Leave the conversation being able to hold your head high, knowing you conducted yourself in the most professional manner possible.
不管对话多么困难,也要随时保证自己言行得体。你无法控制别人怎么说怎么做,但至少可以管好你自己。交涉时要表现出良好素质,表明你能做得专业而得当。
Agree to Disagree
保留各自意见
Sometimes you won’t be able to agree on a solution and it makes sense to simply agree to disagree. If you’re both on opposite sides of the fence and neither of you are interested in changing your minds, there’s no need to waste time trying to convince one another to think differently.
有时你无法赞同某个解决办法,那就保留自己的异议。如果双方都各持己见,都不愿做出改变,那也没必要浪费时间试图说服想法完全不同的另一方。
