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,
project manager or individual contributor.
Communicating:
Speaking and Listening
In the past, listening was defined as a one-step, passive process. With today’s environment of 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 perception checking.

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.

Counseling:
Helping others resolve their own problems
In this module we learn how to apply active listening to help solve problems, by focusing on helpful and positive ways of responding to people who need our help.

Confronting:
Addressing Performance Issues
How can we have a productive meeting with someone who has broken his or her commitment to us? How do we hold them accountable and get them to honor their commitment? We learn how to get uncommitted, yet capable people back on track. We learn how to assess when it is appropriate to have this meeting, how to prepare for it, and how to handle the emotions that may arise. Ultimately we learn how to assure a successful outcome even when at times we need to bring up consequences.
