Description: In this interactive workshop, attendees will learn how to effectively lead and manage employees through frequent, brief conversations. In short conversations, leaders have the opportunity to develop rapport, agree on expectations, sample work, assess, and deliver feedback and reinforcement. Getting better at having effective and strategic conversations can reduce the need for add-on intervention plans. During the workshop, attendees will explore the facets of effective conversations and how they enable behavior change and employee development. Research and case study data will be shared to support each facet. Attendees should bring 2-3 examples of recent conversations with employees as well as one business result they wish to change.
