CANCELLED DUE TO WEATHER
Topic: How Better Conversations Lead to Better Projects
Did you know that according to a Stanford University study, nine conversations out of ten miss their mark? Yes! Only 10% of what you express is understood exactly as you meant it. While we don’t always perceive it, we have all lived through difficult situations:
- A conflict where others interpret our words out of context and our intention is misunderstood
- Being interrupted, ignored or excluded from a conversation when we are a stakeholder
- Turf wars where being right takes precedence over common sense
By the end of this interactive lecture, you will be aware of some of the filters that prevent us from being completely “in-sync,” and you will have tools to help you, as a leader, pay more attention to ensure better team relationships and more productive conversations.
