In today’s complex workplace, fostering a culture of collaboration and support is crucial for achieving organizational success. Leila Kubesch, an award-winning educator and international speaker, will show you how to master the art of “the ask.” This session will provide HR professionals with powerful strategies for requesting help that build partnerships, rather than relying on authority or mandates. Whether you’re enlisting volunteers, rallying leadership support, or securing cross-departmental cooperation, you’ll learn how to frame your requests in a way that emphasizes mutual benefit and shared goals. Drawing on principles of social-emotional learning, body language, and cross-cultural communication, Leila will empower you to foster more meaningful and effective collaborations within your organization.
