Fierce Conversations: Achieving Success at Work and in Life One Conversation at a Time, will introduce you to transformational ideas and principles that will shift your basic understanding of conversations and the power they hold in leadership, building relationships and achieving results.

The central function of a leader is to engineer intelligent, spirited conversations that provide the basis for high levels of alignment, collaboration and partnership throughout an organization and the healthier financial performance that goes with it.

While no single conversation is guaranteed to change the trajectory of a career, a company, a relationship or a life – any single conversation can.

In this webcast you will learn the 7 principles of a Fierce Conversation:

• Master the courage to interrogate reality
• Come out from behind yourself, into the conversation, and make it real
• Be here, prepared to be nowhere else
• Tackle your toughest challenge today
• Obey your instincts
• Take responsibility for your emotional wake
• Let silence do the heavy lifting.
