Understand the everyday struggles caused by personality differences and learn communication strategies to connect, motivate, and reduce conflict.
A majority of unhealthy conflict occurs because of miscommunication rooted in personality differences. In fact, research shows that personality clashes are one of the top causes of workplace drama. Personality has a tremendous impact on workplace interactions because it influences how we perceive the situations, how we prefer to communicate, environmental preferences, how we are motivated, and how we sabotage ourselves in distress. Most models of personality raise awareness but don’t teach new communication behaviors. When we know what to look for, we see that how people communicate is incredibly consistent, observable, and predictable. This topic will help you understand the everyday struggles caused by personality differences and share new communication strategies to connect, motivate, and reduce conflict with all types. Leave with more confidence to turn personality differences into an opportunity for greater connection, innovation, and engagement.
