I have a frequently cranky supervisor - never know what you are going to get, hot/cold. Sometimes it is very difficult to understand why she is cranky on a particular day. This training helped me remember and appreciate that my supervisor's crankiness is not about me - so I need to stay neutral/calm and not let her negativity take over how I feel, even when she's at her worst. :)

Behavioral Science is an area that many people could improve on; there is a tendency to respond to people the way they speak to you - and often, especially when dealing with anger or negatively - that's the worst way to respond

I like how Jennifer explained the best behavior to deal with cranky customers. It made sense why it is the best behavior. I enjoy her classes. I could use them for my personal life. too.

It is a good technique to not get emotionality charged. Would have liked more examples or one that was an auditory example.
