Having difficult conversations with people in your organisation, or outside of your organisation, is often hard to do and is a skill that can be improved upon. Many people procrastinate and avoid having these conversations because they find the situation challenging and uncomfortable. This can inevitably lead to the problem escalating as it is simply not dealt with. Alternatively, people will often mismanage difficult conversations in a way that causes the problems to become bigger.
In this short workshop we will focus on how to have difficult conversations in an effective way to lead to positive outcomes and what participants can do to prepare themselves in these situations.
Anyone that is required to have difficult conversations in the workplace. HR personnel, supervisors, managers, executives.
