Join us for de la Femme’s kickoff event on September 28. The topic will be on Conflict Communication and Resolution Strategies for successful professional management.
What you say and do matters for the outcome you want in any given situation. Whether at the workplace or in our personal lives, we have all been through scenarios where communication barriers result in negative and costly outcomes. There is always a time, when you need to listen and a time to speak up for yourself. Ever wonder when is the time to speak and when to listen? Oliver Wendell Homes Sr. once said, “It is the province of knowledge to speak and it is the privilege of wisdom to listen.” Join us with Michele Whitham to learn the insights/skills of successful professional self-management and hone in some practical workplace conflict resolution strategies.
