About this Event
Turn pushback into progress. Build confidence and influence.
From Conflict to Connection
You’ve prepared your pitch or shared a really great idea—and then comes the objection. Maybe it’s from your manager. Maybe it’s a client. Maybe it’s a colleague across the table. Suddenly, you’re on the spot. Do you freeze? Defend? Or lean in with confidence?
Objections can feel uncomfortable, but they don’t have to derail the conversation. In fact, they can be powerful opportunities to build trust and deepen relationships, to help move things forward.
Join us for the next session in our Navigating Difficult Conversations at Work series, where we’ll break down practical strategies for handling objections with clarity and confidence. Through interactive discussions and real-world examples, you’ll gain tools you can take straight back to your workplace.
