MORE DETAILS
People often avoid conflict because they feel insecure about what will happen once they address it.
They will bend over backwards to find alternate solutions: more meetings, sternly worded emails, leadership books, or team bonding seminars - just to keep from looking the issue in the eye and addressing it directly and finding a solution that sticks. Ignored conflicts grow resentment and defensiveness, and ultimately keep your team from reaching their true, awesome potential.
IN THIS HIGHLY INTERACTIVE PRESENTATION, PARTICIPANTS WILL LEARN:
§ Eye-opening techniques to identify the root of the issue and strategize effective and immediate problem solving through direct and constructive communication.
§ Best-practices for how to open and conduct the conversation in a constructive way to generate buy-in and result in a healthy and positive work culture.
§ 7 Keys to Communicating with Ease, designed to embody a tone of clarity and confidence, to lower your stress level and level-up productivity, collaboration, and growth.
