Overview
Build your ability to discuss the toughest topics at work.
There will be times in our careers when we face conversations that dredge up tough emotions. Our instinct may be to avoid them entirely or to meet criticism with defensiveness. But learning to effectively engage in challenging conversations can create opportunities to build stronger teams and organizations.
Having Difficult Conversations explores how to use empathy and active listening to handle complicated discussions at work. You'll learn how to communicate productively under stress, offer and accept critical feedback, and ensure your team walks away from challenging conversations as a united front.
