The Art of Critical Conversations at Work
Critical conversations at work can arise at any time: addressing performance, delivering feedback, acknowledging a mistake, or navigating a dispute.
However, it’s not only the content of what you say, but how you say it that can make a difficult conversation even harder. The key is to find ways to not dread critical conversations but embrace them.
Join us at the GovLoop offices in downtown Washington, D.C. on Wednesday, July 17 from 4:30 – 6:30 p.m. ET to hear government experts share their advice on the art of critical conversations.
Specifically, you’ll learn:
- When and where to have critical conversations.
- Things to avoid in a difficult conversation.
- Strategies leaders employ to make these difficult conversations easier.
