Back to events
10 October 2024
08:30 - 11:45
Marriott Hotel 515 Queen Street, Brisbane
An essential interpersonal skill for any leader is the ability to hold crucial conversations, even in the face of challenging and emotional behaviours. Yet we know that many leaders may avoid having certain conversations which have the potential to be ‘difficult’ with the hope that the behaviour will just resolve in time.
By successfully navigating crucial conversations as a leader, you can help build trust, strengthen relationships, support wellbeing, and deliver higher levels of performance.
This interactive workshop will explore practical ways for you to prepare for - and lead - crucial conversations in the workplace.
The session will focus on:
Why crucial conversations matter
The different types of crucial conversations leaders need to be able to navigate
What stops leaders having crucial conversations – and why some conversations are ‘difficult’
Approaching crucial conversations with confidence and ways to set yourself up for success
Tips for communicating with hybrid and remote teams
A practical tool for improving your leadership conversations – the iLEADS model
Time to practice skills and tactics that will help you successfully navigate crucial conversations with your team

Partnering with DFP was an incredibly positive experience. From the outset, they were proactive, professional and took the time to understand my background and career aspirations as a leader within the Mental Health sector. What truly impressed me was their insight into the healthcare sector and their strong connections with reputable employers, particularly within the Federal Government space. DFP not only helped me secure a role with long term potential but also provided a level of service that made the entire process stress free and rewarding. I highly recommend them to any clinician seeking meaningful and impactful work.
