Abstract The purpose of this paper is to briefly discuss the characteristics of Borderline Personality Disorder, Antisocial Personality Disorder, and Traumatic Brain Injury, detailing behaviors an employer may commonly see in the workplace, as well as comparing and contrasting the strategies a supervisor may utilize in the workplace to effectively approach an individual to intervene and offer possible support. The paper will examine possible interventions an organization may use in relationship to each disorder, and identify how the intervention may bring about relief for each specific diagnosis.
