Workshop

Graceful Honesty

Summary

The success of any organization, team, or family is dependent on how well we communicate with one another.

Oftentimes, when it comes to holding each other accountable or addressing challenges, what needs to be said runs the risk of making things worse or putting your relationship in jeopardy. As a result, we feel like we’re faced with two options: avoidance or conflict. Fortunately, there is a third option that strengthens relationship and drives results!

In this full-day workshop, participants will learn how to communicate through difficult discussions when results and relationships are on the line.

Highlights

  • How to navigate challenging conversations gracefully
  • 3 elements of a difficult discussion
  • The “Point of Power” principles and how to hold people accountable
  • Steps to make a psychologically safe environment
  • How to confidently say what needs to be said without breaking a relationship
  • Demonstrate what it means to listen and empathize with people on the “other side” of the conversation
  • Next steps that ensure action, accountability, and results!
