I agree with this article. Very well stated with some pretty damn good practical advice.

Embrace Conflict, is a hard thing to imagine but quite possibly the strongest piece of advice. Especially when you get to the nuts and bolts of things. I think that is also a great tool, instead of making a person at fault, look to the details, and then you will be able to see the larger picture. Often it is one or two things another person is doing or not doing, once you see that it helps keep things in perspective.

Good article. Technically, depression and bipolar disorder aren't personality disorders. While part of the DSM IV, they belong to a different category of mental illnesses, and are often seen as organically based disorders rather than something that developed as a pattern of behavior.

It is a very important subject we all should be dealing.
The workplace will be much better place to be if people would start to act properlly towards each other despite their different characters.
