Event Overview
When asked what we like most and least about our jobs the answer is often the same: the people. While you may be more or less comfortable making small talk, working in teams, and generally building relationships, inevitably we all encounter challenging conversations. Sharing differences in opinions, making a request, or giving and receiving feedback can often be difficult, but there are simple tools and practices that can not only reduce our stress and anxiety but transform them into opportunities for greater connection.  In this session, we will experience how mindfulness practices coupled with some simple communication strategies can build your confidence and help you enhance your relationships, your leadership, and hopefully your job satisfaction and overall wellbeing.
 

Learning Outcomes
 - Begin to notice the factors that can make a conversation challenging for you
 - Identify the practices that best help you prepare and remain present for the conversation
 - Build confidence in applying those tools before, during, and after the conversation
 - How regulating our emotions can turn challenging conversations into opportunities for greater connection.
 

Note: These sessions will not be recorded. In order to be able to prioritize group connection and experience; participants will have the option to turn cameras and microphones on during the sessions.
