Do You Work or Live with a Narcissist?

Do you live or work with a person who is not only self centered, but is VERY fragile when you want to give any kind of constructive feedback?  If so you may work or live with a narcissist.  Enjoy the short video below to discover this difficult personality disorder.

Narcissists Have a Personality Disorder

  • An inflated sense of their own importance and deep need for admiration
  • Feel they are superior to others and have little regard for other people’s feelings
  • They hide behind a mask of ultra-self confidence
  • Behind this mask lays fragile self-esteem vulnerable to the slightest criticism

My Favorite Book Recommendations on Narcissism

  • Stop Walking on Egg Shells by Paul Mason
  • Disarming the Narcissist by Wendy Behary
  • Why is Everything Always About You? by Sandy Hotchkiss

 Click Here to send me your questions. 

I enjoy hearing from my readers.  Let me know your experience with narcissists.  More of my clients want me to add this topic to their programs since they don’t know how to deal with this frustrating personality disorder.

“Got” Personality Issues at Work?

conflict 2 men staringYou Really Like Going to Work…Except For: 

  • The colleague who drives you crazy
  • Your team who is having it’s own drama
  • Cliques of like-minded people who are very different than you

If you can relate to these issues, believe me, you are NOT alone!

So, Joyce, What Can I Do When Colleagues Drive ME Crazy Because They Are Not Like Me?

It’s not an easy answer BUT we can resolve this issue. Remind yourself that we can’t put our head on the shoulders of anybody else. Realize that some people are methodical while others like spontaneity. Neither one is better than the other. They are just different behavioral styles. Talk to your team member and spin your discussion positively. Use your humor about your differences that agreeing to disagree is a great first step.  Check out past posts on Different Equals Different…Different Does Not Equal Wrong. 
The strategy below will backfire if your team lacks trust with each other.  Send me a private email before you attempt to have this conversation at Joyce@JoyceWeiss.com

Joyce, Give Me a Strategy to Use…PLEASE!

Glad that you asked. This is an exercise that I use during my Communicate with Impact Training.
Ask the person (Let’s call him Brad) if he is willing to have a productive and honest conversation to improve communication. If Brad agrees,  start asking him what you do that he appreciates. Let Brad know that you appreciate hearing his statement. It’s now your turn to do the same with Brad.

Now comes the tricky part of the strategy. Ask Brad to tell you what you do that drives him crazy. Set a ground rule that this is supposed to be a positive experience…not a boxing match! It’s important for you to either ask Brad for more clarification or thank him for his openness. Now it’s your turn to do the same. Becoming defensive is not a good thing, so make sure and stop yourself from making excuses.

Check out my article on Creating a Culture of Excellence to learn more on how to have this important conversation.
