Workshop Overview:

Whether it’s resistance to feedback, disruptive behaviour, or constant negativity, difficult dynamics in the workplace can drain time, energy, and team morale. As a manager, avoiding these issues isn’t an option, your ability to handle them directly affects team performance, retention, and wellbeing.

In this practical, no-nonsense webinar, we’ll explore how to manage challenging workplace behaviours effectively and how to approach difficult conversations with clarity, confidence, and impact.

Learning Objectives:

We will look at:

  • What makes someone 'difficult'? Are they just different? We'll look at reframing behaviour and how to respond to difficult situations with empathy
  • Awareness of unconscious bias and the 'halo and horns' effect
  • How to adapt your leadership to manage different communication styles
  • Strategies for preparing and leading difficult conversations and handling objections
  • How to stay calm and constructive under pressure or in emotional conversations
  • Techniques to manage difficult people and scenarios
  • Ways to turn conflict into a catalyst for improved performance and relationships
  • What to do if all attempts to manage difficult people don't work, including how to professionally part company
  • Plus, the opportunity to get advice on your real-life scenarios and have all your questions answered by Kathy.
