Working with Emotional Intelligence

..a practical 1-day seminar for staff on key

EI practices to better manage feelings, stress and relationships at work

Lots of us aren’t that crash-hot when it comes to conducting conversations with difficult performers.  We say things that get staff off-side by putting things in negative ways. They get defensive and either retreat or retaliate.

Positive Performance Conversations works on a simple principle: focus on the positives you want to see, not the negatives you don’t.  It gives you a step-by-step tour of carefully-crafted footings, frameworks and formulas to prepare yourself for dealing more competently and comfortably with difficult performers.  Overcome any fears you may have and help others to feel more comfortable about the conversation in the process…

We’ll look at how to start performance conversations better, how to handle anxiety and defensiveness, ways to deliver difficult feedback that are less likely to put the other person ‘off-side’, keeping on-track and getting commitment to agreed goals and improvement actions.

“Thought provoking and practical with real steps, good visual examples, clear explanations and tools-practice activities that all helped my learning. A tangible and engaging program that was timely, relevant and extremely practical.” Trish K  University of Southern Qld

Why not level the playing field? Your staff also benefits from being able to prepare better for performance conversations too…
