Navigating Challenging Conversations
Every meaningful piece of work eventually runs into tension — different priorities, unspoken frustrations, and conversations we postpone because they feel risky or emotionally charged. Many professionals either avoid the real issue in the name of harmony, or push too hard and create resistance. Both feel understandable — and both limit real progress. In this session, you explore how to stay grounded when conversations get uncomfortable, how to name what truly matters without escalating conflict, and how to use tension as a source of clarity rather than something to eliminate. You’ll gain practical tools to recognise your own behavioural patterns under pressure, hold multiple perspectives in the room, and turn difficult conversations into stronger relationships, clearer decisions, and forward movement.
