1. Openly Aggressive People: These people are
the bullies who are often abusive and
intimidating. They believe their “victims” are
weak and deserve the treatment they give
them. They are therefore stimulated by signs
of weakness. There are three subtypes in this
group.
(a) Sherman Tank: Attack not just your idea
or project, but you personally as well.
Confrontational, pointed, harassing and angry.
Examples: bullying from your boss, sexual
harassment in the work place.
(b) Snipers Feel very strongly about how
others should think and act rude comments,
biting sarcasm Attempts to make you look
foolish. Example love forcing their opinions on
you.
(c) Exploder after initial calm explodes into
uncontrolled ranting and raving. Nut cases I
say
2. Complainers: Feel overwhelmed by an unfair
world, like bringing their problems to you.
Complainers find fault with everything. These
are fearful people who have little faith in
themselves and others because they believe in
a hostile world. It can be difficult to
recognize a true Complainer. They are skilled
at starting problems in such a critical manner
that it is hard to separate real problems from
complaints. And people around them become
defensive because they know the Complainer
will be the first to blame them if something
goes wrong. Complainers themselves feel
powerless to correct the situations they
complain about. Relying on others to fix the
problem perpetuates their own belief that
they are without blame or fault.
3. Clams: characteristics- No verbal feedback,
No non-verbal feedback, say nothing. These
people react to questions you have posed,
controversial statements you have made, and
indeed any situation they deem disagreeable,
by clamming up or saying nothing. Just when
you want a response, they may grunt, give a no
or yes or more likely say nothing. It is
difficult to discern a Clam from a quiet
person. However, quiet people are not likely to
avoid direct questions, whereas Clams are. For
instance, you have asked a colleague to not
park so close to your car in the company
parking lot. A Clam will say nothing. A quiet
person will at least respond in some way. The
biggest problem in dealing with Clams is you
don’t know what the silence or lack of
response means. You can’t say what’s on their
mind….
4. Super–Agreeable: What is so difficult
about communicating with someone who is
always pleasant and supportive of your ideas?
Nothing, until you want that person to do
something for you. Super-Agreeable want to
be liked and accepted by everyone, so to
achieve this they are outgoing, sociable and
very personable. However, the danger here is
they will agree with you about one thing and
then agree with the next person whose ideas
are contrary to yours. At work, the Super-
Agreeable will volunteer to do every job and
get none of them done.
5. NO /negative person: characteristics - Able
to defeat big ideas with a single syllable,
deadly to morale. No/negative person are
extremely pessimistic, negative and more
bitter than complainers. Usually, they feel
defeated or powerless in regard to the
situation. And the more you try to solve a
problem or improve a situation, the more
negative they become.
6. Know–it-All: Has a low tolerance for
correction and contradiction. Apparently
confident, often condescending; their claimed
knowledge may be real or fake; and they are
often poor listeners
7. Maybe Person: Procrastinates in hope that a
better choice will present itself Indecisive, or
Maybe Persons, are very helpful people;
however, they put off making decisions which
might upset someone. The serious problem here
is that indecisiveness can work – most unmade
decisions become irrelevant through time. For
them, not making a decision is a compromise
between being honest and not hurting someone.
8. The envious person: Envy of this type is fear
by comparison. Feeling “less than”, “inferiority
complex” because you perceive that someone
else is “more than” in some particular area. It
could happen when working on a project with
your colleague, they might feel threatened by
you or you might be seen as a threat to your
immediate boss who might think you have an
eye in his or her position. The jealous
neighbour who questions every new car you
buy, spreading rumors, cooking up stories ….
The list is endless.
Finally
Conflict between people arises inevitably and
we all have to be prepared to manage difficult
relationships at home and in the workplace
from time to time challenging people can turn
a perfectly good day into a dramatic
experience without any reason. When walking
away is not an option, what do you do?
