Managing sensitive conversations

Managing sensitive conversations

Being able to deal with difficult conversations effectively is an essential business skill. At times in our careers we’ll have to deliver bad news, whether giving a negative performance evaluation, challenging a colleague or client, or presenting differing options or directions of a project to several people. 

This seminar focuses on how to positively approach each situation, avoid common pitfalls and manage emotionally charged situations.

Learn about:

  • Understanding what makes a conversation difficult
  • New strategies for handling difficult conversations effectively
  • How to avoid wasting emotional energy on feeling negative about a person or situation
  • How to structure the opening of a difficult conversation more effectively
  • Increasing confidence and capability to get the most from difficult conversations.
