Summary:
We all know that productive conflict leads to the best decisions. Even so, many of us avoid conflict where we can both in business and in life. It is often not an area we study or are skilled in – we don’t know our own conflict styles or have insight into others’.
This is a very practical and fast-paced workshop where you will have the opportunity to both learn about your and others’ conflict styles and to practice tools to build your confidence in raising a differing viewpoint, being heard and having productive conflict. You will learn tools for how to set boundaries and have ‘difficult’ conversations. As a set of tools these will strengthen delegates’ confidence in any communication situation which carries the risk of reactivity and conflict.
