Our lives are full of Tough Talks. Let’s face it, we will never be comfortable with these conversations. But they can’t be avoided, at least not without a cost. How we handle these conversations has a direct impact on our success as a leader at any stage in our career.
Whether it be addressing situations like a promotion with our supervisor, disrespect from a peer or poor performance with a direct report, we need tools to solve the issue at hand and a structure in which to use them.
Going in with the mindset to “win” or being too ready to “give in” doesn’t truly resolve the issue. Learn how to collaborate with your counterpart so solutions that seemed impossible to find begin to appear.
Learning to address instead of ignoring Tough Talks leads to a more productive, and profitable organization and will help you build your career as a problem solver.
Participants will learn:
• How to begin a Tough Talk that sets the right tone for the whole conversation.
• The importance and benefits of all parties expressing their thoughts and opinions
about the situation.
• Build confidence to advocate for yourself, your needs, and your career development.
• How to uncover your counterpart’s hidden fears that are preventing collaboration.Managing Fear and Uncertainty to Have the Life You Want
The inner voice of self-doubt and insecurity is universal. No human being is spared its attempt to keep each one of us on the sidelines. It likes to speak at the most inopportune times, when there is a lot on the line in our careers and in our personal lives.
This voice can keep you from stepping on the ladder to career advancement, from pursuing the field of work you would really like, from conquering your fear of speaking in public that would increase your influence, from taking an unpopular position as the leader because you are concerned what others will think.
What matters in all of this is your response. You can follow the voice of possibility, or you can follow the voice of fear. Will you allow the voice to sideline you, and then come back later to taunt you with “what if?”
In this dramatic presentation, Colene shares the story of how her world was rocked by an unforeseen circumstance. And the trail of steps that opened to reconciliation and greater opportunity.
In this keynote, we will explore:
• Expose your fears to weaken their power; your greatest limitations are self-imposed.
• The mountaintop is where you celebrate, the valley is where you learn.
• In the dark you take one thoughtful step at a time.
