Approximately 9% of the U.S. population has a personality disorder. Even though that sounds like a high number, many people with personality disorders don’t know they have one, let alone understand how to cope with it. A personality disorder involves one or more pathological personality traits that are consistent over time, consistent across situations, and which create significant impairment in a person’s life. So, learning how to cope with a personality disorder is key to functioning at your best, both for your well-being and to improve your performance at work. In this program, we’ll go through common personality disorders, which are separated into three clusters, and their accompanying symptoms. Then, we’ll discuss how to effectively cope with these disorders at work.
