Leading a team and working with families means navigating all kinds of tricky conversations. Whether delivering difficult news, managing team tension, or responding to a parent’s concern, many professionals avoid these moments entirely or rush right through them.
But what if you could approach tough conversations with greater confidence and clarity? What would it be like if everyone in your organization felt safe engaging in honest and sometimes uncomfortable conversations?
In this session, you’ll learn to tackle difficult topics head-on: how to be willing to hear what needs to be heard, to manage reactions and to start saying what needs to be said. You’ll gain the tools to be intentional in your courageous conversations and show up with both empathy and purpose.
Learning Outcomes:
Learn simple strategies to stay grounded and open when tensions rise.
Learn the art of balancing your perspective with that of others to solve problems collaboratively.
Explore a 3-step approach to navigating uncomfortable conversations with ease.
Identify the root cause of resistance and what you can do to move towards more collaboration.
This session is designed for professionals in a leadership role within their organization.
Location: Four Points by Sheraton London (1150 Wellington Road, London, ON)
FREE for London/Middlesex Professionals
Registration closes on Thursday, November 6 at 12:00 PM
