Workplace Application:
Keeping productivity up while the workforce is scattered requires advanced skills in handling conflict and building relationships 

Change and innovation and reacting to pandemic with a new work environmental creates conflict - and must be dealt with in a healthy way. This is even more difficult in a "distributed workforce" environment.  In this interactive session, participants will learn a systematic approach on how to deal with a range of personality types, and how to use training as a lever to rebuild organizational culture.  

By using a systematic approach to identifying and disarming challenging fellow employees, participants will be able to eliminate the roadblocks and build a high performing culture. This course is presented through examples, group discussion, and interactive exercises.

Learning Objectives:

  • The impact of workplace conflict and the causes of personal conflict.
  • How conflict can damage a high performing culture.
  • Using virtual learning tools to repair a fragmented culture.
  • How to assess the style of the individuals that you are communicating with.
  • Core communication competencies that all professionals should have.
  • When nothing works - how to deal with the challenge.
