How to work with complicated people : strategies for effective collaboration with (nearly) anyone / Ryan Leak.

Strategies for effective collaboration with (nearly) anyone (other title)
Leak, Ryan, (author.).

Summary:

"Who is the most complicated person you work with? You probably don't have to think very hard to answer that question. You already know their name, their job title, their quirks, and their flaws. You have firsthand experience with the mental and emotional fallout they leave in their wake. You've seen the problems their complexity creates for everyone on their team. You wish you could fix them, solve them, ignore them, or teleport them to a parallel dimension. But you can't. You have to work with them. That means you need effective strategies to collaborate with (nearly) anyone. Especially the picky, prickly, problematic ones. Drawing from his global consulting experience with teams and leaders from the glitz of sports and entertainment, to the number-crunching world of finance, to the meticulous realms of insurance, pharma, and manufacturing, Ryan Leak provides proven strategies for dealing with these complex issues."-- paraphrased from Amazon.com.
