“Anybody can work with simple and like-minded people. The superpower is when you can work with Difficult People who see the world differently.

Have you ever had to lead someone who you thought was just a little… complicated?

You probably don’t even have to think twice—you already know exactly who they are. Their name, their job title, their quirks, their flaws. Maybe they’re even a client. As a leader at Allstate, you’ve seen firsthand the challenges complicated people bring—the stress, the miscommunication, the friction that slows things down and wears teams out.

You’ve probably wished you could fix them, change them, ignore them… or, let’s be honest, teleport them to another dimension.

But you can’t.

YOU HAVE TO WORK WITH THEM. AND SOMETIMES, YOU HAVE TO LEAD THEM.

(Sure, you could quit—but let’s be real, your next company will have a complicated person waiting for you.)

That means you need practical, 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…

Detoxing unrealistic expectations and getting comfortable with complicated

Learning to communicate effectively in complex environments

Embracing healthy disagreement as a tool to discover better solutions

Seeing challenging individuals as human beings to understand rather than problems to solve

Setting boundaries that let people into your world without letting them run your world
