Join this CMU Accelerate Leadership workshop, led by Laura Maxwell, Leadership Coach in the Tepper School of Business Accelerate Leadership Center. Based on the book, "Getting Along: How to Work With Anyone (Even Difficult People)" by Amy Gallo, we will work on identifying difficult coworkers in your life — the insecure boss, the passive-aggressive peer, the know-it-all, the biased coworker, etc. The group will discuss strategies to deal constructively with people you’re at odds with. Taking the high road isn't easy, but we’ll practice empathy, encouragement and practical advice you can use right now. You’ll be able to navigate your toughest relationships and build interpersonal resilience along the way.
