Crucial Conversations: Leading the Conversations That Matter Most
September 9 | 11am–1pm | Pinnacle Financial Partners

Every leader faces conversations they'd rather avoid: difficult feedback, conflict, performance concerns, or communicating through change. The difference between high-performing teams and struggling teams often comes down to how these conversations are handled.

In this interactive workshop, you'll learn practical strategies to approach challenging conversations with confidence, reduce defensiveness, build trust, and create better outcomes for everyone involved. You'll leave with a framework you can apply immediately to communicate with clarity, empathy, and courage.

You'll leave with:

• A framework for preparing for high-stakes conversations
• Techniques to manage emotions while staying focused on the desired outcome
• Strategies for creating psychological safety during difficult discussions
• Practical tools you can use immediately with your team or anyone

Join Dr. Leighann Rechtin, Ivy Tech and your Chamber St. Matthews team for a lunch and learn that will leave you inspired and ready to tackle the challenge.
