Why I Created This Course

Few people enjoy having difficult conversations.  But we also know these conversations are essential for productive work relationships – and even relationships outside of work.  And in the course of our professional lives, these types of conversations can make or break your effectiveness as an employee, manager or leader.  

This course has two objectives.  First, you will learn the method that I featured in my 2017 book Reach to help you successfully step outside your comfort zone in any situation.

This method has been used by individuals in companies around the world to achieve success. 

Next, you will have access to high quality tools and frameworks for learning to successfully step outside your comfort zone in a series of key situations involving difficult situations in the workplace.  The goal is to help you find a way to handle these situations successfully and in a manner that feels natural and comfortable for you.

Who Is This Course For?

This course is for anyone who wants to improve their ability to handle difficult conversations at work.
