PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
First seek to understand, then to be understood – how to handle difficult conversation
Tuesday, 26th November 10:30 – 12:30. Free for members, £25 for non-members All conversations work best when both parties feel respected and able to say what they want to say. However, creating an atmosphere where this is possible isn’t always easy. And without a doubt, the higher the stakes and the bigger the anticipated disagreement, the harder it gets. Whether it’s asking for a pay rise or a promotion, giving someone difficult feedback or addressing a conflict, leadership and career coach Karin Mueller will show you some helpful strategies for tackling those challenging conversations in this workshop.
