Civil Conversations: Turning Emotionally Charged Confrontations into Constructive Discussions

When a frustrated member of the public confronts you or an upset colleague comes your way, how you react can determine the entire trajectory of the conversation, turning it into an emotionally charged contest of wills or a calm, reasoned discussion. In this interactive and practical workshop, you’ll learn how to achieve a calm, reasoned conversation in even the most heated situations, including:

  • The signs of emotional escalation during confrontations
  • The common mistakes that escalate frustration and conflict further
  • How to help people calm down and communicate more reasonably with you
  • How to be assertive and get heard without escalating matters

This course qualifies for 3 SHRM PCD recertification credit hours
