In this workshop, Navigating Difficult Conversations, we ask what makes conversations difficult? And, how can we make them productive? Participants will walk through a step-by-step process to engage in tough conversations with less stress and more success. This workshop is 90 minutes.
Learning outcomes include:
- Understanding the three levels of conversation
- Assessment of active listening skills
- How to reframe conversations into solution-driven dialogue
Workshop led by Ixchel Rosal, Senior Associate Vice President for Student Life.
