​An essential interpersonal skill for any leader is the ability to hold crucial conversations, even in the face of challenging and emotional behaviours. Yet we know that many leaders may avoid having certain conversations which have the potential to be ‘difficult’ with the hope that the behaviour will just resolve in time.

By successfully navigating crucial conversations as a leader, you can help build trust, strengthen relationships, support wellbeing, and deliver higher levels of performance.

This interactive workshop will explore practical ways for you to prepare for - and lead - crucial conversations in the workplace.

The session will focus on:

  • Why crucial conversations matter

  • The different types of crucial conversations leaders need to be able to navigate

  • What stops leaders having crucial conversations – and why some conversations are ‘difficult’

  • Approaching crucial conversations with confidence and ways to set yourself up for success

  • Tips for communicating with hybrid and remote teams

  • A practical tool for improving your leadership conversations – the iLEADS model

  • Time to practice skills and tactics that will help you successfully navigate crucial conversations with your team
