Developing the skills that are highly sought after and valued across any company leads to an engaged and motivated workforce.

Communicating Risk

Join Amii Barnard-Bahn, workplace culture expert and executive coach, for a fascinating and practical discussion that will help anyone learn to share difficult messages without damaging political capital.
Attendees will learn how to:

Overcome the human tendency to dislike and distrust bad news messengers

Effectively prepare to deliver the news in a way that preserves and builds trusted relationships
-
Maintain the sense of urgency and action required to respond to crisis and lead change
