All leaders have to deal with difficult team moments from time to time. People ‘cross lines’, overstep boundaries, don’t do what was agreed or disagree over priorities or approaches.

Every team has frictions. Sometimes it’s lack of cooperation or not sharing the workload equally. Sometimes it’s personal – confronting someone’s behaviour or attitudes.

It’s how leaders deal with difficult moments that makes all the difference. Yet how often do we fumble them? Raise issues or say things in the wrong way or get hijacked by emotions.

Things like these trip us up. They make difficult moments even more difficult. That’s where our Tackling TOUGH TALKS clinic can help…

“Extremely informative! 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 again, the workshop was really helpful!”

Nicole S., Community Housing
