Overview

While uncomfortable conversations are never easy, they are often necessary. Although this is an important part of being a leader, it is often a task that is neglected or overlooked. Great leaders know that the problem doesn’t go away just because it is ignored, yet when asked, almost all leaders admit that they are ill prepared to lead uncomfortable conversations. This workshop will explain why these conversations are so uncomfortable and how you can manage them in a caring and compassionate way, while at the same time addressing the issue. Whether its with parents, teachers, students or the community, uncomfortable conversations don’t always have to be uncomfortable. Don’t dance around the elephant in the room, let JGPR help you get it out for good.

  •  
    The Crucial Aspects Of Addressing Uncomfortable Situations And Conversations
  •
