Overview:
Even though words flow freely, it is curious how seldom minds meet and how much frustration is felt at misunderstandings.
There is a dissonance you can literally feel in the air when you disagree with another person whether that is in a private conversation or in a team meeting.
This dissonance, the difference of opinions, accompanied by strong emotions can stop productivity in its tracks. Not only is progress stopped on the project, but the productivity of the individuals in the conflict usually flatlines because of negative emotions.
The most glaring problem is that individuals do not have the verbal and emotional skills to handle conflict.
Why should you Attend:
Individual needs are not met, and dialog does not communicate nor connect but becomes difficult. Relationships are destroyed and teamwork suffers when conversations end poorly. Employees need tools to revisit the conversation and to restore healthy interactions.
Easy and Effortless Difficult Conversations explores the components of conflict and examines the 5 ways of responding to conflict:
- Win/Lose
- Lose/Lose
- Lose/Win
- Compromise
- Win/Win
It is important for attendees to change the paradigms of conflict from negative to positive.
Easy and Effortless Difficult Conversations teaches the subtle nuances of conversation as differences of opinion arise and provides an effective model to get both parties into a problem-solving dialog.
