Rene, can you kindly tell us who you are addressing here. This is a public forum and unless you state a name, nobody knows who you are referring to.
Thanks

>> THINK THEY KNOW BUT DON'T PERSON
>> Above all, these people want to be appreciated. They want attention and are very assertive about getting it. This is the type of person who knows just enough to be dangerous. When you first listen, he sounds like he knows what he's talking about. He's pretty convincing too since he himself believes he knows what he's talking about. Sometimes listening to this type of difficult person can be funny, but if something needs to be done correctly and it's crunch time, this person loses his charm. Then it becomes a vicious circle.
>> People don't have the time to listen to him, and the less they listen to him, the more he craves attention. It's natural to be infuriated by this difficult person with his exaggerations and lies, but that won't get you anywhere. If you confront him aggressively, he will only exaggerate more and become louder.
>> Your best approach is to catch him when he's giving out misinformation and, without putting him on the defensive, put a stop to it. Ask him questions that will clarify some specifics and show that he doesn't know what he's talking about. Be sure to ask in an innocent manner since if he feels humiliated, your approach will backfire. The next step is to correct what this difficult person said with the facts as you know them. At this point give him a way out by saying something like, "That's fairly new information and maybe you haven't read it yet." If there's something you can thank him for, you should do it.
>> He will appreciate being appreciated. Then get back to a discussion of the facts. This tactic can work out well for you because when this difficult person sees that you know what you're talking about, he may become a fan of yours. The final step with this difficult type is to quietly let him know that his behavior has negative consequences for the group. At the same time, continue to give him reinforcement with the good things he does. That's really what he is looking for.

>> BUILDING YOUR PERSONAL POWER
>> When we're talking about personal power here, we're not referring to force or intimidation. We're talking about the power we have to validate each other, and to satisfy each other’s natural, universal ego hunger through acceptance, approval, and appreciation of each other. When we use this power successfully, it opens doors to everything we desire. In this chapter we'll take a look at your personal power. Most of us never understand that we have any power -- not over ourselves or over other people.
>> A person who values other people will:
>> 1. Acknowledge the value of others. Think of it this way: (A). if you were the only person in the world, how much could you accomplish? (B). How much more could you accomplish as one among billions? Does that drive the point home? Did you ever consider that power is about how others see you? If you want power, people must see you as powerful.
>> 2. Make more of others -- this will make more of you. Give people credit when it's due. It doesn't take anything away from you. On the contrary, it shows that you are strong and generous. This makes people in general admire you, especially the ones you are giving credit to.
>> 3. Accept people for who they are. That doesn't mean that you necessarily like them, but if you want others to give you the power you seek, you must give it to them as well by allowing them to be who they are without judging them.
>> 4. Work on approval, even of people you don't like. Everyone has something about him or her that you can admire. Everyone. When the other person feels your approval, he or she will give you the power you seek.
>> 5. Appreciate others. Respect them and their time. See their individuality. When you give others the acceptance, approval, and appreciation you want yourself, you are improving your life. This is a self-fulfilling prophesy, and they will give acceptance, approval, and appreciation back to you. When you're dealing with difficult people, they will recognize your positive attitude toward them
