Planning and Preparing for Tough Conversations

Tuesday, November 29, 2022 @ 12:00 pm — 1:00pm (MST)

"Are you ready?" typed on a retro typewriter

Making plans is often useful when we need to have a challenging conversation. And, as Mike Tyson famously remarked, “Everybody has plans until they get hit for the first time.” In this session, we’ll explore how to plan for navigating a challenging dialogue. We’ll also look at the emotional preparation you’ll need when you get hit (metaphorically).

Organizers: Paul Tevis

Please note: All of our Learning Labs are interactive sessions using Zoom and Miro. They are not just us talking to a slideshow. We invite all participants to collaborate on a virtual whiteboard (Miro) and engage in conversations with us and each other. While you are welcome to join in audio-only mode, it will be a challenge to participate, and you may not get much out of the session. Because these sessions are interactive, we do not record them. If you are not familiar with Miro, you can learn more at academy.miro.com.
