How to Master Critical Leadership Conversations
Workshop
Is your work day mired with conversations that go nowhere in spite of your best efforts to lead? Do you find meetings die a death without positive actions? Do you wish you could get more of your own way for the greater good?
We believe that leadership begins with ourselves. And that most conversations involve some form of negotiation, from negotiating for organisational change to a pay rise and where to go for lunch.
Join A.C.E. Negotiators (short for Agile, Chilled and Empathetic) Portia Tung, Tom Roden and Marco Milone, a diverse group of Agile coaches and leaders with more than 40 years of collective experience in Agile, for a chance to grow your negotiation skills and put them to the test in a safe, friendly and playful environment designed to help you be at your best.
This fun and interactive workshop is based on the 9-step negotiation process developed by FBI Agent Chris Voss who has used it successfully from hostage negotiations to MBA classrooms and even at home.
