Everybody has an Alan..the introduction.
Over 7 1/2 years ago, I walked into a new place of employment. Immediately I could tell Alan hated me. For the next 5 1/2 years this man made my professional life hell. After I left HT(company), I thought of a nifty title of a book. "Everybody has an Alan". This would be a handbook to let others know how to deal with that bitch of a boss, cranky coworker, or the know it all Nickis. I wrote many psych papers on Alan's behavior and decided for my capstone project that I would create the actual book. I figured I would start off by posting it in a blog. Wish me luck!

ReplyDeleteHonestly, the best thing to do with people like them is immediate feedback. Often times, they will back down if confronted (professionally). If this doesn't work my advice to you is to document, document. If problem persists take it up the chain of command. I hope this helps.
