How to Have the Conversations You Dread
Learn to successfully navigate your most challenging conversations at a dynamic, interactive workshop with Sharon Grady, MBA ’89.
Sharon’s workshops on discussing difficult topics are always among our most popular. She is back this year with new insights to help you successfully manage your most sensitive conversations, including:
- Delivering “constructive” feedback to a sensitive colleague
- Saying “no” to an important and demanding client
- Delivering an unsatisfactory performance review to an employee
- Deciding with your spouse whether his/her elderly parent will come to live with you
A skillful coach and educator, Sharon teaches senior executives how to manage conflict and build relationships. Her clients have included American Express, Merck, IBM, Ford, Sears, Royal Bank of Canada, Harvard Business School, MIT, Tudor Investments and Wachovia Bank.
Among the topics Sharon will explore in this session are:
- What makes certain conversations so challenging for each of us
- Why our usual responses are so often ineffective
- Practical techniques for speaking the truth in a non-threatening way
