Crucial Conversations for Mastering Dialogue
Backed by 30 years of social science, Crucial Conversations skills represent the standard in effective communication and the marker of high performance individuals and organizations.
Whenever you’re not getting the results you want, it’s likely an important
conversation either hasn’t happened or hasn’t been handled well. In fact, both
individual and organizational success are largely determined by how quickly,
directly, and effectively we speak up when it matters most. At the heart of
healthy and high-performance organizations are people willing and able to
hold Crucial Conversations.
DIALOGUE IS THE DIFFERENCE - WHAT’S A CRUCIAL CONVERSATION?
A Crucial Conversation is a discussion between two or more people where the stakes
are high, opinions vary, and emotions run strong. When conversations turn crucial,
people tend to follow one of two ineffective paths: they either speak directly and
abrasively to get the results they want but harm relationships, or they remain silent
with the hope of preserving relationships only to sacrifice results.
COURSE DETAILS IN PERSON
But there’s a better way. Crucial Conversations gives people the skills to step into
disagreement— rather than over or around it—and turn disagreement into dialogue for
improved relationships and results. Crucial Conversations for Mastering Dialogue is
an engaging classroom course rich with group discussion, real-time practice, and group
support and coaching. Delivered in two days, this in-person course offers the best
in traditional learning and development.
