How To Have Critical Conversations

Let’s face it, sometimes having a conversation with your direct reports isn’t easy. Whether you are providing critical feedback, sharing a new direction the agency is taking or even changing around the workday schedule, critical conversations can be taxing on everyone involved.

But there are ways to make them more impactful.

Join us online Monday, Oct. 24 at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT to hear from a government expert about the steps you should take to have the most effective critical conversations.
