Understand how to deliver bad news sensitively and effectively.
We’ve all been there, where we find ourselves having to have difficult conversations with employees where we aren’t sure how to keep the peace while expressing bad news. This presentation will help you learn how to communicate effectively and reflectively so you can feel good about how you express negative circumstances, such as demotion, improvement plans, raise denial, etc. We will explore specific examples to help you gain confidence in these situations so that you may continue your personal and professional growth during times of difficulty.

- You will be able to discuss your primary communication style in sharing bad news.
- You will be able to explain how to handle various situations such as demotion, raise denial, personal disagreements, etc.
