If You Don’t Have Anything Nice to Say… Having Courageous Conversations to Lead Growth

Most of us grew up hearing, “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all!” We’ve been told since childhood how to mind what we say and not hurt the feelings of others. In positions where we are leading teams, this philosophy often prevails as team harmony is prioritized above honest feedback. Fortunately, showing care for your teammates INCLUDES challenging them and having the difficult conversations needed for individuals and organizations to grow. In this session, you will learn how to leverage your strengths to show up as a leader who cares deeply AND is willing to challenge and push.
