Workshop Description
This workshop consists of four
modules that provide skills to help you manage interpersonal relationships
in the workplace, whether you are a manager, supervisor, team leader or
project manager.
Contracting:
Getting results with and through others
It happens all too often. We give
others a project and a deadline. Yet, the work is not completed on time. Or,
it is not done correctly. Or, even worse, it is not done at all! This module
prevents negative outcomes and assures positive ones by acknowledging the
fact that successful delegation depends on collaboration and, when
necessary, problem solving. We learn how to lead a discussion so that others
clearly understand what we need from them; define the tools and information
needed to get the job done; and follow-up to ensure that steady progress is
being made. Also, we learn how to hold the other person accountable when
they have broken their commitment to us. We learn how to get uncommitted,
yet capable people back on track and keep them there.

Conflict:
Conducting cooperative problem-solving discussion while staying calm
Conflict between individuals and
groups does not have to be destructive. In fact, conflict can actually be
healthy. It can give birth to new ideas and create stronger relationships
between individuals and groups. The key is controlling your own emotions and
being willing to resolve conflicts so both parties feel like winners.
Win-Win! We address situations and arguments that annoy us, cause us stress
and drain our productivity. We learn how to reduce the emotionality and
awkwardness that accompanies conflict. We learn how to address others
clearly and calmly to turn dissonance into harmony.

Counseling:
Helping others resolve their own problems
In the past, listening was defined
as a one-step, passive process. No more! With today’s quality initiatives,
high-performance work teams and empowerment, it is critical that listening
become an active process – one that results in full comprehension,
appreciation and cooperation. In this module, we learn to master active
listening in the stages it occurs: awareness, attending, interpreting and
responding. We also learn how to use active listening to help solve
problems, by focusing on helpful and positive ways of responding to people
who need our help.

Coaching:
Guiding employees to success
Success in business is a team
sport that requires effective coaching at every level. This module is
designed to make us effective coaches not just in theory – but in
practice. This module focuses on practical skills that are proven to work.
It makes a clear distinction between coaching moderate to high performers,
and managing people who, for numerous reasons, are difficult to work with.
This module is about observing on-the-job performance and giving objective
feedback to associates who are open to hearing it.
