Pop-Up Conversation: What Do I Say? What Do I Do?

Description

Join in this timely conversation presented by Terence Johnson with J. W. Fanning Institute for Leadership Development

During times of unrest and uncertainty, leaders want to say something.  Leaders want to do something.  And yet, leaders are halted by an even bigger desire to say it right and do it right out of respect and care for others.  Let's explore that.  In this session, we will:
·       Examine sources of conflict
·       Review conflict management styles
·       Collaborate for authentic, compassionate leadership strategies on leading in conflict through difficult conversation
