When feedback isn’t working, it’s time for a difficult conversation.
In this interesting and valuable workshop, we examine and adopt skills the most successful communicators use to get successful outcomes from difficult conversations.
You'll learn natural, non-psychobabble ways to safely have those tougher conversations. You won't use these skills every day, but when you do, you'll be happy they're there.
EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
CONFERENCE ROOM: PHOTOMAC II

Humans have forever disappointed themselves trying to control emotions. You don't control emotions, you have them.
Here we take a captivating look into the neuroscience of emotions and concrete techniques you can use to get your “thinking brain” working when emotions are high.
TalentSmart tested emotional intelligence alongside 33 other important workplace skills and found that emotional intelligence is the strongest predictor of performance and success in all types of jobs. Get yourself some!
STORYTELLING WITH DATA
CONFERENCE ROOM: PHOTOMAC III AND IV
quick reference card | slide deck
Nobody loves a “data dump”, and some presentations contain no data, which makes ideas hard to action on.
The best presentations come from a point of view, follow a story structure, and use data strategically to get buy-in.
In this session, we delve into the science and “how to” of data driven storytelling. Anyone can learn to share compelling and engaging data in a way that leads to action.
Outcome: People say YES to your ideas and proposals.
THE ART OF INFLUENCE
CONFERENCE ROOM: PHOTOMAC V

A well-built idea is an easy way to become a driving force and impress leaders. But why do so many great ideas fall on deaf ears?
In this workshop we reveal what the research says decision makers need in order to say “yes”. We also explore the psychology of different types of decision makers and what makes them feel safe to give the go ahead. You'll love these tools.
