Question:
How should one deal with the arrogant or the haughty?
Answer:
He should be advised and counseled to do good:Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1595Sahih (Darussalam)
Q: Should he be boycotted?
A: No, he should be advised and directed to the good first. If he displays arrogance and displays sins, then he deserves to be boycotted. However, he may be ignorant and in need of teaching, in need of being made aware, and in need of advice until what Allah has afflicted him with of arrogance is removed from him, just like the other people of sins. They are advised and directed to the good first, and if they persist in their apparent sins, they deserve to be boycotted, if boycotting is better for them.

Answer:
He should be advised and counseled to do good:
Three will not be spoken to by Allah on the Day of Judgement, nor will they be purified, and for them is a painful torment
ثلاثة لا يُكلِّمهم الله يوم القيامة، ولا يُزكِّيهم، ولهم عذاب أليم: شيخ زانٍ، وملك كذَّاب، وعائل مستكبر.Q: Should he be boycotted?
