Having Difficult Conversations
Our work, our relationships, and our lives succeed or fail one conversation at a time. Many conversations are neither comfortable nor easy, but they are necessary and inevitable if we are to communicate effectively. The quality of our lives is largely determined by the quality of the questions we ask - and the quality of our answers. The conversation is the relationship. You can learn how to do difficult conversations well. Having Difficult Conversations
This session includes:
- How to regularly interrogate reality in your workplace and name the problem.
- How to describe reality without laying blame and explore other people’s realities.
- How to make every conversation you have as real as possible.
- How to avoid blame by modifying your language.
- The importance of getting core needs met.
- Why the experience of being listened to and understood is so compelling.
- How to utilise silence and find a way to say the things that can’t be said.
- How to deliver the message without excess baggage.
Everybody needs to have difficult conversations but those who avoid them tend to make the problem bigger. Open conversations, no matter how difficult they are open up opportunities for everyone to move forward.
