Handling Challenging Conversations
[Places]
Communication in any organisation is complex and challenging. This is particularly so in the diverse community of a University where there are emotive internal and external communications that often have a significant impact. This can create emotive responses which can be challenging to handle. Self-awareness as well as an awareness of others' needs is crucial and this workshop is a chance for members to explore in more detail their own approach to having challenging conversations and to further develop some strategies that work for you, as well as understanding other tools that could help. The session will happen between 9:30 - 12:30. You only need to attend 1 session. This is the same session repeated. Light refreshments will be provided, please email staff-training@eng.cam.ac.uk for any dietary requirements or adjustments. |
