"I started my marketing career as an assistant to the CEO of a small branding company. He had a powerful personality and liked things done in particular ways. Though it was tough initially, it was a great way to learn how to deal with people when they get hot-headed and learn effective communication skills. I find that remaining calm, explaining the situation, and course-correcting are effective ways to deal with difficult people."
