Crucial Conversations for Mastering Dialogue (Virtual)

Based on the bestselling book Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High, QNET is pleased to present the award-winning Crucial Conversations training.

Crucial Conversations training teaches individuals and teams from different backgrounds, departments and specialities how to effectively discuss ideas in a way that leads to virtually everyone buying into the decisions.

• Identify the conversations that are keeping you from your desired results.
• Identify how you deal with people when you are under stress.
• Speak persuasively, not abrasively, no matter the topic.
• Make it safe for others to share their honest opinions.
• Deal with people who either clam up or blow up.
• Gain control of your own emotional responses.
• Speak frankly without risking everything.
• Disagree without being disagreeable.
• Influence without exerting force.
