Today’s always on, TNT – Time-Numbers-Technology/Transition – Driven and Distracted World can breed tension and conflict. Discover the Four Angry “I”s and the Stress Doc’s “Four Faces of Anger” Model for transforming anger, rage, and conflict into productive dialogue and conflict resolution. Learn and practice skills and strategies for, 1) disarming power struggles by asking trust-building, “good questions” and 2) providing and receiving all kinds of feedback, even how to deal constructively with a critical aggressor. Understand the difference between “acknowledgment” and “agreement” and lyrically disarm or emotionally detach from “Yes, butter” and self-centered types. Use the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Styles Inventory to discover your style of conflict; and learn how to engage in collaborative conflict resolution. Learn how to appropriately and strategically use humor to disarm pressure-packed situations.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
As a workplace becomes more “TNT” with ever-changing, 24/7 timeline pressure, and the workplace becomes more diverse, it is more difficult for “message sent to be message received.” Communication problems, interpersonal frustrations and conflicts, silo effects, and “us vs. them” thinking can negatively impact workplace productivity and a cohesive culture. This webinar is for anyone in an organization or company who depends on efficient and effective communication and collaboration to be productive. It is for anyone interested in preventing unspoken or unaddressed anger from spiraling in a destructive direction. This webinar will help promote a productive, inclusive, and supportive “high task/tech and human touch” culture.
