Difficult Conversations Workshop: We Need to Talk

Digital Rev specialises in digital leadership and soft skills development. We believe that the best projects are the ones which put people at the forefront. While processes and tools are necessary for digital delivery, on their own they are insufficient to delivering truly successful digital projects.Our founder and principal trainer, Peta, has been delivering training and talks for years and in this time has worked with Zone, Deliver Conf, Bureau of Digital, Your Favourite Story, and DPM conference.Peta is passionate about seeing the digital industry flourish, having spent over 7 years working in the industry in delivery roles from Project Manager and Scrum Master through to Head of Project Management.Her years of first hand experience working in agencies and in-house to deliver digital creations gives her great insight into the opportunities, constraints and pressures of agencies, clients and those at the delivery forefront.All of Digital Rev’s training is developed with one aim in mind: to transform digital folk intodigitalleaders.

<P><STRONG>We Need to Talk: How to handle difficult conversations when working on digital projects</STRONG></P>
<P>Difficult conversations are a fact of working life. Whether we’re addressing the performance of a team member, negotiating scope and costs with a client or learning how to function as a well-oiled team. Knowing how to successfully handle a difficult conversation can improve your relationships and ensure time, money and energy is spent in the right place.</P>
<P>In this half day interactive session we’ll look at ways to handle difficult, awkward and down-right uncomfortable conversations. We’ll cover project themes including financials and team performance.</P>
<P>At the end of this workshop you will have not only flexed and strengthened your communication skills but you’ll be a more adept project leader capable of handling even the stickiest situations.</P>
