Courageous Conversations
Who doesn’t recognise this situation? That moment at home when you think: “Oh, I should have said that …” Suddenly it’s completely clear to you how you could have managed an unsatisfactory conversation and led it in the right direction. Unfortunately, at the most difficult moment you couldn’t think straight…
If we have conversations where a lot is at stake with a large difference of opinions, our emotions can start to play tricks with us. This can happen in a conversation that you planned in advance, when you know it can become difficult. It might also happen very suddenly in a conversation that seems to be going very smoothly. Sometimes, the way someone looks at you or the tone of voice can be enough to have the steam coming out of your ears. Thinking clearly is then no longer possible and you say the wrong things in the wrong way. How can you restore safety in this difficult conversation? With our Courageous Conversations training you get the latest insights and learn the skills to deal with these situations.
