Tough Conversations:
The Art of Giving & Receiving Feedback
A workshop for the workplace
presented by Janice Kinder, President, Workplaces Can Work
A dynamic, half-day workshop designed to help you become more confident about handling tough conversations.
Say what you need to say & hear what you need to hear
- Mentoring and role modeling for direct reports
- Interacting with higher levels of management
- Collaborating more effectively with colleagues
- Conducting authentic and useful performance reviews
- Handling "difficult" employees or dealing with a demanding public
Workshops can be a safe and welcome getaway to practice new skills. Your career and job performance are not on the line, so it's possible to experiment with new behaviors in a way that is interactive and hands on.
You'll learn to:
- Recognize high stakes conversations
- Understand how others experience your particular style and approach
- Separate myth from reality about givers & receivers of feedback
- Appreciate the role of self awareness, essential to effective feedback
- Prepare for and engage in challenging feedback sessions in a sequential way
What's in it for you?
- Low on theory, high on new behaviors you can try the next day
- Become a more valuable member of the team
- Contribute in a more open way to communications and team building
- Build your network of colleagues committed to professional and personal development
