Course Overview
Do you…
- find yourself getting anxious, nervous, stressed or even dreading having certain ‘difficult’ conversations, particularly in a virtual environment?
- find it hard to raise a difficult subject in a way that doesn't sound negative or aggressive?
- struggle to keep these conversations on track and get a positive resolution?
- worry that the conversation will escalate into conflict or even deadlock?
- tend to avoid having these conversations in the hope that things will resolve themselves?
Would you like to be able to …
- give unexpected news, decisions or feedback, or discuss personal performance issues, in a way that sounds positive and constructive?
- discuss difficult subjects in the same confident and relaxed way that you handle day to day conversations?
- manage different personality styles and conversation dynamics in a way that avoids potential conflict and keeps the conversation on track?
- handle these types of conversations in a way that maintains the relationship while getting the best result?
If you find yourself answering "yes" to any of these questions, this workshop is for you.
