Managing Difficult Conversations Etisalat Academy
  • Location: Dubai
  • Duration: 2 Days

    Course details

    We have so many interactions in the run of a day, it's reasonable to expect that some of them are going to be difficult. Whether these are conversations that you have in person, or you manage a virtual team and need to speak with someone in another city, there are things that you can do to make these conversations go smoothly. This one-day workshop will give you the tools to manage difficult conversations and get the best results possible out of them.

    This workshop will help you teach participants how to:

    • Define frame of reference
    • Establish a positive intent and a desired outcome
    • Use good communication skills during a conversation
    • Draft a script for a difficult conversation
    • Use specific steps to carry out a difficult conversation
    • Access additional resources as reguired
    • Maintain safety in a conversation

    Course Overview

    You will spend the first part of the day getting to know participants and discussing what will take place during the workshop. Students will also have an opportunity to identify their personal learning objectives.

    Choosing to Have the Conversation

    Your first step in managing a difficult conversation (even if it happens suddenly) is to consider the potential outcomes and decide whether or not the conversation has enough value for you. This session will show participants ways to consider the consequences, as well as how to explore their frame of reference, establish positive intent, and identify what they want from the conversation.
