Do you avoid difficult conversations? 
Maybe you avoid certain topics or uncomfortable conversations with certain people. 
Whatever the reason, avoiding 'clearing the air' will almost always have long term, negative consequences. Even if you can't see the impact of not dealing with the pressing issue, the resentment can build up until one day, someone will explode. 
During this two hour session, we will look at:
What is a difficult conversation?
What makes difficult conversations even more difficult?
How to prepare for difficult conversations
Understanding and managing emotions - awareness
Seeking help
Providing constructive feedback
After the session, you will be able to recognise your own barriers to approaching difficult conversations, prepare for meetings to minimise negative outcomes and manage emotions, both yours and the other persons more effectively.

<p id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">That&#39;s because although most employees are absolutely fine, and some are great, there&#39;s often a small contingent who cause more trouble than the rest combined!
<br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">These people can present real problems because while their actions are often minor -- or "under the radar" -- their effect is negative, long term -- and destabilizing.</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">It&#39;s written by people with many years of experience in handling these situations, and every one of our many scenarios has solutions that have been used -- with success -- in real life.</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">It&#39;s also deliberately structured so that you can use it to address the difficult people you need to deal with right now.</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">And of course, you can use its lessons as a permanent guide to managing difficult people for many years to come!</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This course has been designed to help anyone who manages staff to deal with the difficult employees that make life more difficult than necessary, and to do so in a positive and productive way.</p>

<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">First we show you the most common types of <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Deflectors </strong>- that&#39;s people who don&#39;t share your ideas of team effort, and whose lack of dedication can only sap the strength of your team.</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Then we move on to <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Non-Team Players</strong>. These people may contribute, but they also have their own personal agendas.</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Next, it&#39;s <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Negative Personalities</strong>: how to prevent the different types of these people from dragging down your team&#39;s morale.</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Finally, it&#39;s <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Trouble Makers</strong>. Here, we don&#39;t mean the types of outright rebels who can be dealt with through a disciplinary process, but the more insidious type, who work away from your gaze and sow discontent and disorder. They can often be beaten quite easily!</li>
</ul>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">You should find many ideas in this course to help you, now and in the future, to take situations that often feel frustrating and turn them into positive outcomes.</p>

<hr fr-original-style="" style="border-color: var(--border-muted); border-style: solid; clear: both; break-after: page; user-select: none; box-sizing: border-box;">

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">
If you manage a team, you will encounter difficult employees along the way, some of whom can leave you lost for ideas. So if you want to solve a current problem, or gear up to be able to deal with problem people in the future, then this course is for you!

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">
There are no prior requirements, and even if you don&#39;t manage a team, you may enjoy seeing how difficult employees affect a team -- and how to deal with them.

Course Objectives:
After taking this course, you'll be able to:
Identify difficult employee types
Use strategies to manage DEFLECTORS
Use strategies to manage NON-TEAM PLAYERS
Use strategies to manage NEGATIVE PERSONALITIES
Use strategies to manage TROUBLE MAKERS
Apply these strategies to problems you may have at the moment  Here's a great new course that every line manager will value! That's because although most employees are absolutely fine, and some are great, there's often a small contingent who cause more trouble than the rest combined!

These people can present real problems because while their actions are often minor -- or "under the radar" -- their effect is negative, long term -- and destabilizing. This course has been created to solve this problem! It's written by people with many years of experience in handling these situations, and every one of our many scenarios has solutions that have been used -- with success -- in real life. It's also deliberately structured so that you can use it to address the difficult people you need to deal with right now. And of course, you can use its lessons as a permanent guide to managing difficult people for many years to come!
 Learn How to Deal With Difficult Employees This course has been designed to help anyone who manages staff to deal with the difficult employees that make life more difficult than necessary, and to do so in a positive and productive way. 
First we show you the most common types of Deflectors - that's people who don't share your ideas of team effort, and whose lack of dedication can only sap the strength of your team.
Then we move on to Non-Team Players. These people may contribute, but they also have their own personal agendas.
Next, it's Negative Personalities: how to prevent the different types of these people from dragging down your team's morale.
Finally, it's Trouble Makers. Here, we don't mean the types of outright rebels who can be dealt with through a disciplinary process, but the more insidious type, who work away from your gaze and sow discontent and disorder. They can often be beaten quite easily!
 You should find many ideas in this course to help you, now and in the future, to take situations that often feel frustrating and turn them into positive outcomes.  Target Audience: 
If you manage a team, you will encounter difficult employees along the way, some of whom can leave you lost for ideas. So if you want to solve a current problem, or gear up to be able to deal with problem people in the future, then this course is for you!
  Pre-Course Requirements 
There are no prior requirements, and even if you don't manage a team, you may enjoy seeing how difficult employees affect a team -- and how to deal with them.
  Career Path: Just think: how will your management career benefit if you are not distracted by the kind of staff members who just seem to make things so much more difficult than they should be? Learn how to identify - and deal with - these people, in a simple, structured way that will solve a lot of your problems, now and well into the future!  Course Outline:
