However, sometimes, we find ourselves faced with challenging conversations that require finesse and skill to handle. This talk, we will delve into the art of engaging in difficult discussions while also safeguarding our professional integrity.

Throughout the project lifecycle, project leaders often encounter situations where they must initiate or participate in tough conversations with various stakeholders, customers, team members, and other involved parties.

These conversations may range from addressing conflicts and disputes to becoming the messenger of undesirable news that can expose us to potential backlash.

On the other hand, some project leaders may intentionally introduce a level of non-hostile positive conflict to encourage innovative thinking and creativity within the project.

In this engaging session will provide valuable insights and actionable strategies to empower project leaders to navigate such challenging conversations effectively.

Marion will share practical tips on how to approach these situations with confidence, ensuring the best possible outcomes for both the project and our colleagues.
