All leaders are faced with
difficult moments to manage from time to time.
People ‘cross lines’. Overstep boundaries. Don’t seem to do what was agreed
or they disagree over priorities or approaches. Confrontation over behaviour
or other contentious issues becomes necessary. It’s how leaders and teams
deal with these moments that makes the
difference. “I
wanted to increase my skill levels in dealing with difficult discussions both
at work and personally and this was a very good, very informative workshop
with some very good and useful tips. Bill presented the topic very well and
kept everyone engaged and focused.” Helen
M., Mackay Hospital and Health Service “Tackling TOUGH
TALKS” shows you ways to take the heat out of hard talks
with the help of a unique 7-stage model and set of easy-to-use conversation
tools that can make a real difference to every challenging situation you
face. Designed for those keen to
get better at handling tough conversational moments but finding it difficult
to attend our full 2-day Dealing with Difficult Discussions
program, this 1-day fast-track clinic paces you through practical,
step-by-step actions you can take to prepare yourself better to tackle those
conversations you find most contentious, confronting or conflict-filled. “The
seminar worked for me and was really good for awareness-raising and
interesting to think about what you are like in a Difficult Discussion and
analyse this. Now I understand my own reaction to verbal attacks a lot
better. Great work Bill - and your experience made it even better!” Bergita
S. QUT You’ll take-away our full
100-page self-coaching guide loaded with easy-to-use tools and tips to help

informative. I wanted to be able to construct and hold difficult discussions
without offending or putting people offside and this clinic provided me with
a high level of self-awareness in relation to my own behaviours I can apply
to both professional and private life. The methods you use are great. Thanks
