Whenever you're not getting the results you want, it's likely an important
conversation either hasn't happened or hasn't been handled well. In fact, both
individual and organizational success are largely determined by how quickly,
directly, and effectively we speak up when it matters most. At the heart of
healthy and high-performance organizations are people willing and able to
hold Crucial Conversations.
WHAT'S A CRUCIAL
CONVERSATION?
A Crucial Conversation is a
discussion between two or more
people where the stakes are high,
opinions vary, and emotions run
strong. When conversations
turn crucial, people tend to follow
one of two ineffective paths: they
either speak directly and abrasively
to get the results they want but
harm relationships, or they
remain silent with the hope of
preserving relationships only to
sacrifice results.

But there's a better way. Crucial
Conversations gives people the
skills to step into disagreement—
rather than over or around it—and
turn disagreement into dialogue for
improved relationships and results.
Crucial Conversations for
Mastering Dialogue is an engaging
classroom course rich with group
discussion, real-time practice,
and group support and coaching.
Delivered in one or two days, this
in-person course offers the best in
traditional learning
and development.
