Critical Conversations
LIVE LEARNING OVERVIEW

Great teams aren’t defined by how they communicate when things are easy, but by how they handle hard truths. These critical conversations shape culture, leadership, and trust.

This training gives learners practical tools to navigate difficult discussions while preserving respect and maintaining connection. Your team will learn to separate facts from stories, express concerns with respect, and rebuild dialogue when emotions are running high. The result is more transparent conversations, stronger relationships, and a healthier workplace culture overall.

YOUR TEAM WILL BE ABLE TO:

Identify high-stakes conversations before they spiral
Build mutual purpose and respect, even during disagreements
Use structured communication tools to ensure productive outcomes.
Approach tough discussions with confidence
Reduce emotional reactivity and promote psychological safety

        We’re here to help! Our Solutions Consultants can guide you to the perfect session for your team.

“Accessible and digestible”

The topics covered are really heavy and, yet, your tone and approach – a balance of activism and allyship – made the content feel accessible and digestible. I strongly believe the 300+ attendees left with new learnings and a lot to think about.
