DIALOGUE IS THE DIFFERENCE!

Whenever you’re not getting the results you want, it’s likely an important conversation either hasn’t happened or hasn’t been handled well. In fact, both individual and organizational success are largely determined by how quickly, directly, and effectively we speak up when it matters most. At the heart of healthy and high-performance organizations are people willing and able to hold Crucial Conversations.

This course will introduce you to Crucial Conversations® for Mastering Dialogue and the skills to step into disagreement—rather than over or around it—and turn disagreement into dialogue for improved relationships and results.
