Conversation skills have never been more important as we navigate this new reality; we believe the lessons provided within this mini-course will elevate the connections between the important people in our lives – and focus at home first.
SEATTLE (PRWEB)
April 22, 2020
Today Fierce Conversations launched a new, free online course focused on “shortening the distance” during the coronavirus pandemic, even with those in close proximity. Fierce Conversations for Social Distancing will teach participants how to have conversations that strengthen relationships using proprietary tools that have improved organizations for over 20 years.
“The distance we feel in our professional and personal relationships often has nothing to do with physical proximity, however, in our current situations we can also feel very disconnected and distant,” said Stacey Engle, President of Fierce Conversations. “Conversation skills have never been more important as we navigate this new reality; we believe the lessons provided within this mini-course will elevate the connections between the important people in our lives – and focus at home first.”
Fierce Conversations for Social Distancing is broken out into 3 distinct lessons from Fierce leaders:
-
Susan Scott, Founder & CEO discusses the importance of conversations with yourself during quarantine. Participants will learn about the challenge of interrogating reality and why a personal stump speech should “sing to your soul,” especially in times like these. - Ronna Detrick, SVP of Learning dives into key conversation skills used in the workplace and how she uses these same skills as a mom with grown daughters who have moved back into the family nest.
- Stacey Engle, President shares from her personal experience as a self-described extrovert working at home alongside her introverted husband and the ways they use Fierce Conversations to manage it all.
In addition to the course videos, participants will receive worksheets to further their learning. These include a personal stump speech template, a list of 5 conversations to have with family and friends with tips for prioritizing these, along with 10 actionable conversation starters to use with your partner.
“Social distancing is hard and affects us all in different ways, to different degrees,” continued Engle. “We know that strained relationships only make things harder. We hope individuals will take advantage of these tools, and begin to have the conversations that matter.”
