Navigating Difficult Conversations
with Empathy and Curiosity
Difficult conversations often feel challenging
because we care. But what if we leveraged that
care and used it not only to make our case, but
to also strengthen our relationship with the
person on the other side? In this Great Basics
session, participants will learn practical skills for
bringing empathy and curiosity into high-stakes
workplace discussions. By learning to navigate
these courageous conversations with intention,
we ensure our communication and actions
reflect our values and drive effective solutions
to business problems.
