Agenda
Does this resonate with you?
“Communicating with ____ is an instant turn off. They are so contrary and argumentative. How did I get stuck being with them?” “Family gatherings used to be fun. Now we usually get into arguments that takes the fun out of being together.” “_____ is obnoxious… good riddance.”
Communication in an “Elephant in the Room Discussions”, with an Obnoxious Person or in a Controversial Setting has gotten far more difficult in the last five to ten years. HELP IS ON THE WAY.
Hear from four people who have found helpful insights are coming together to discuss some ideas on surviving, (make that thriving), in these moments. Join author Wendell Amstutz (The Listening Tool Kit) to relate valuable communication lessons from the School of Hard Knocks.
