Community Life is on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of the month.
This Community Life will be on “How to Have a Difficult Conversation” with Pam Larson. Dinner starts at 6:00 p.m. and then we start at 6:30 p.m. The teens and the children have their own program.
“How To Have A Difficult Conversation”
We all have that inner voice that tells us we need to have that difficult conversation with a spouse, child, friend, employee, co-worker etc. A conversation, that if it took place, could improve the relationship. But fear too often drowns that courageous internal whisper and we put the conversation off. The consequences of NOT having that conversation is usually very costly.
No single conversation is guaranteed to change the trajectory of a business, a career, a marriage, a friendship or a life, however any single conversation CAN and that makes the work and courage it takes to have a difficult conversation worth it.
In this talk we will learn how should prepare for having a difficult conversation. How to find the right words in the moment. And how to handle the difficult conversation in a way that produces a better outcome: less pain for you, and less pain for the person you’re talking to.
We will learn how to get what we need from the difficult conversation and preserve our relationships.
