How To Say Anything To Anyone (Room Meeting Room 1)

23 Jan 19
11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Tracks: Session

You have a request for one of your co-workers but don’t know how to say it, so you don’t say anything. A project you worked on for six months has become a black hole and there is no information about the status. You’re frustrated, but you don’t say anything. Two employees aren’t working well together. It’s impacting the atmosphere in the office. You don’t know what to say, so you don’t say anything. Speaking up when we are frustrated is hard and, as a result, most of us don’t. Instead, either we tell other people (aka gossip) or we say nothing and relationships become strained. You can say anything to anyone, it doesn’t have to be hard. In this session you’ll learn how to lay the groundwork to make speaking up a lot easier and less stressful.
