Brave Talks: Mastering Courageous Conversations
Empowering managers to engage in meaningful, challenging conversations that strengthen collaboration and trust.
More detailed information
Some conversations require courage. This workshop equips managers (and team members) with the skills, mindset, and confidence to navigate these critical discussions, whether with peers, managers, or internal/external partners.
These conversations ask a bit more from us: they touch on emotions, bring us closer to the person we are speaking with, and sometimes feel challenging.
Yet, they are precisely what builds honest relationships, trust, and stronger collaboration.
Participants learn practical techniques to prepare, conduct, and follow up on conversations that matter, ensuring alignment on the foundations of collaboration, performance, and well-being.
Through interactive exercises and guided practice, participants explore real-world scenarios such as giving and receiving feedback or fostering a coaching attitude or conducting wellbeing or stress-prevention discussions. By mastering courageous conversations, managers (and teams) can address important topics constructively, reduce recurring conflicts, and create a culture of openness and trust.
The workshop is pragmatic and tailored made as it will focus on the exact need of the client.
