Managing Difficult Conversations and Conflict
Conflict can arise for a number of reasons but the knock on effect can result in a breakdown in communication, anxiety, and emotional stress, not to mention the detrimental impact it can have on your organisations culture and individual or team performance.
Managers need to be able to plan and hold difficult conversations with members of their teams and their own managers to enable the most positive outcomes possible.
Through this module, we teach you the basic skills and behaviours needed to prepare, evaluate and enter a conversation with the intention of finding a resolution. You will feel more confident in managing conflict and approaching those often-avoided difficult conversations.
