SubjectSuppoRTT (Supported Return to Training)
DescriptionDo you ever find yourself having conversations about someone when you should be having them with them? Have you ever spent more time in your head contemplating the conversation than actually having it? Do you ever feel apprehensive knowing there is a challenging conversation on the horizon? If so don’t worry. These are normal human experiences and can simply act as prompts that we need to add to our communication skill set. How are you with receiving, and giving feedback? And how are you when things don’t work out well? These are inevitable parts of human life, and of leadership. This session will explore some tools that can help you prepare for, and navigate, challenging conversations that you encounter. It is unlikely that any of us will get through life without having any!
