Fundamentals of Interpersonal Communication: Let’s Focus on Feedback – part 2
Designed for all leaders seeking a fresh perspective (Board Leaders, General Manager’s, Executive Directors, CEO’s, etc.) A deeper dive exploring the art of receiving feedback well. Ideal for participants who have completed part 1 or are ready to cultivate and practice new skills.
This is an opportunity to cultivate the skills needed for effective communication and collaboration. Explore ways to maintain positive and professional relationships while receiving important feedback. It is hard to lead and inspire others if we are not skillful in receiving feedback. In this interactive session, participants will be introduced to mindfulness and self-awareness tools to help be more responsive and less reactive/defensive when receiving feedback.
This is a 90-minute skill-building workshop for improved communication. Through group sharing, small group exercises, and an opportunity to practice and reflect, we will explore the art and science of receiving feedback while centering relationships. This is for leaders seeking to create and/or maintain professional and respectful relationships with an improved ability to receive and share feedback.
Outcomes:
* Improve your skills for greater connection and alignment
* Learn strategies to stay centered when feeling stressed or defensive
* Gain insight into your conversational habits and patterns
* Explore ways to expand your feedback toolkit
* Understand the human tendency to muffle positive feedback and amplify negative feedback
To participate fully, please arrive ready to participate with your screen on. This interactive session will not be recorded due to the personal and experiential ways we will learn by practicing.
This workshop builds upon the UN inner development skills (being, thinking, relating, collaborating, and acting) required for sustainable change.
Upon request this workshop can be offered for an entire board or leadership team.
(Although it is recommended that attendees sign up for parts 1 and 2, we welcome those who can only make it to one of the two sessions.)
