Abstract
Extract:
This paper firstly suggests a working description of a “difficult person”; secondly, describes outward behaviours of such labelled people; thirdly, sets out five overlapping categories of causes; and finally suggests a toolbox of responses for each “type” of cause.
This topic has a vast foundation in medical, psychiatric, counselling, management, cultural, theological and negotiation literature.¹
