What’s the one conversation you know you need to have?
Uncomfortable conversations are inevitable — and your success is often shaped by how willing you are to have them and how well you handle them.
Whether you're working with clients, navigating a challenging transaction, collaborating with another agent, or leading a team, knowing how to approach difficult conversations with clarity, confidence, and purpose is an essential skill.
In this interactive workshop, Jess Pfister will explore the real cost of avoiding difficult conversations and provide practical tools and a repeatable framework for handling them effectively.
You’ll learn how to:
• Prepare with intention and clarity
• Manage emotional triggers and respond effectively
• Communicate directly while maintaining trust
• Navigate conflict productively
• Follow through to drive understanding and results
You’ll leave with a practical blueprint — and greater confidence to finally have the conversations that matter most.
