This session will provide you with inside secrets for fostering successful interpersonal relationships at work.
Have you ever heard someone say, “I will NEVER understand her!”, “That’s not how I would have reacted”, or “We will just NEVER get along.” If so, you’re not alone. Wouldn’t your life be more enjoyable if everyone at work could just get along? This session will offer the secrets to working with even the most difficult team members, and will share why the “golden rule” is wrong when it comes to workplace communications. This session will help you:

- Learn to value and appreciate the different qualities that each individual brings to the team.
- Learn how to adapt to various personalities and predispositions among team members.
- Welcome and respect differences to move toward a common goal.
- Learn to work successfully and efficiently as part of a solid and high-functioning team.
