Understand the psychology of a difficult conversation and how to avoid the common pitfalls that cause the conversation to fail.
Challenging conversations are common in the workplace, yet we all tend to avoid them until absolutely necessary. What if the difference between avoiding/hating challenging conversations and enjoying and having successful outcomes is all in your head?

Become the person people look to for help with creating success out of challenging conversations by committing to learning these key principles and practices.
