Conflict shows up everywhere in nonprofit work: differing priorities, unclear expectations, performance concerns, board–staff tensions, communication breakdowns, and more. Yet few professionals are taught how to navigate these moments in healthy and productive ways.
This 3-hour interactive workshop positions you to skillfully navigate conflict for optimal outcomes. In the first part of the presentation, you'll learn key components and techniques for moving through conflict with intention and competence. The last part will focus on the practical application of these skills, along with Q&A with Rainy and Stacie.
In this session, you’ll:
Learn how to prepare for a difficult conversation
Practice techniques for handling emotions when discussions go sideways
Explore ways to move forward after the conversation
Work through a real conflict that you’re currently facing
Have opportunities to practice new skills in a supportive environment
Don't miss this chance to take a deep dive with professional guidance into content that impacts each of us every day; conversations are the foundation of our relationships, personal and professional. The more skilled we are with the tough ones, the more we can accomplish in our work and our lives outside the office.
