Difficult Discussions Matter

Welcome to Difficult Discussions Matter!

This is an engaging and exploratory full day of learning that looks to involve you in a variety of different ways that include self reflection, group work, conversations and role play. In this session we explore with you the role that attitudes and behaviours have on a conversation, listening skills practice, emotional intelligence and the 5 steps to difficult discussions.

This session will support you in:

- Becoming more aware of your own communication style;

- Developing your understanding of active listening skills and the importance of this when experiencing conflict;

- Understanding what makes some conversations more difficult;

- Preparing you for future conversations by using a simple approach;

- Helping you to reflect on your own behaviours and attitudes and those of others;

- Developing your planning and preparation for conversations;

- Developing your confidence by allowing space to use the approach in a safe environment through exploration;

- Feeling motivated and assertive to have conversations which may be difficult.

This learning opportunity is open to everyone!
