The Art of Positive Confrontation: How to Say What You Don’t Want To Say
Every day each one of us is confronted with difficult conversations and with potential confrontations. When someone’s behavior is bothering you, whether it is a colleague or relative, what do you do? Do you speak to the person and communicate your feelings or do you just ignore the behavior? Most of us do not want to address this difficult behavior and then feel taken advantage of, frustrated and powerless.
This seminar explores how we can handle difficult conversations and encourage open communication. It offers participants an opportunity to understand, explore and overcome feelings of fear and avoidance when confronting or experiencing a difficult situation. This highly interactive session provides participants with the insight of confrontation as a powerful tool which will lead to a better appreciation of how authentic communication creates success. Key Learning Points:
- Reasons for avoiding confrontation
- Types of Confronters
- Understanding Your Behavioral Style—avoiding conflict in life
- Positive confrontation as a tool for success
- Four step model for the art of positive confrontation
