Register for Crucial Conversations Workshop
A Crucial Conversation is a discussion between two or more people where the stakes are high, opinions vary, and emotions run strong. This workshop will provide you with tools to engage in dialogue. Register online by April 14, 2023.
Whatever the situation, if you can’t talk honestly, you can expect poor results.
Crucial Conversations for Mastering Dialogue is a copyrighted course (developed by Crucial Learning) that teaches skills for creating alignment and agreement by fostering open dialogue around high-stakes, emotional, or risky topics – at all levels of the university. By learning how to speak and be heard (and encouraging others to do the same), you will begin to surface the best ideas, make the highest–quality decisions, address challenging situations in the office, and then act on your decisions with unity and commitment.
All lessons include an engaging classroom instruction from Crucial Conversation experts, extensive real-time practice, personal reflection, group discussion and coaching.
Participants will learn how to:
- Speak persuasively, not abrasively
- Foster teamwork and better decision-making
- Build Crucial Conversation acceptance rather than resistance
- Resolve individual and group disagreements
