About our Presentation: Many people struggle with communication in the workplace. This is especially true when faced with others’ poor performance or behavior, differences of opinion and uncomfortable emotions. In fact, the most common response to a difficult situation is to avoid it; to hope it will resolve itself.
Fool-Proof Formula for Having Uncomfortable Conversations addresses this struggle. In this presentation, Aleta Norris will discuss the natural and predictable human tendencies to default to avoidance or to engage in disrespectful communication because of the pressure and stress of the situation. These tendencies can be replaced with a step-by-step process. Aleta will introduce you to six steps to navigate through an uncomfortable conversation in a way that honors all parties involved, minimizes emotion and leads to a positive outcome—high productivity and accountability while preserving the relationship.
