Dealing with a Difficult Co-Worker – hinnat ja saatavuus

This book walks the reader through on how to bring up difficult issues in a way that reduces defensiveness and fosters a candid, open-minded, open-hearted conversation. It provides the reader with practical recommendations on what to do before having a courageous conversation so you "show up" as the best version of yourself, including: 1. How to counteract the unproductive self-talk and destructive stories we tell ourselves that lead us to enter conversations in an antagonistic state. 2. How to shift your state to one of curiosity and compassion. 3. How to differentiate between realistic and healthy intentions and those that are unrealistic and dysfunctional...and will therefore set you up for a disastrous conversation. It then walks you through the author's "Declaration/Invitation" process for opening up a constructive conversation. While the principles and techniques are framed within the story of a real life conversation the author had with a co-worker, they are applicable to any "crucial conversation," whether in your work life or in your personal life.
