Online Professional Workshop – Diplomacy

Diplomacy is the art of navigating around difficult and sensitive issues without causing catastrophe or unnecessary distress. Studies show that poor diplomatic skills are responsible for dramatic drops in the productivity of employees.

In this workshop:

• You will learn to identify different conflict styles in others and in yourself
• You will consider the value of politeness – a vital skill in any organisation – and how to apply it in difficult situations
• You will practice empathy towards those we find difficult
• You will consider when to press our point, when to compromise, when to let things go and when to find a genuinely collaborative solution

Online workshops

We offer this online workshop via Zoom. Zoom is easy to use and offers a lot of possibilities for interaction. It is possible to see and hear all participants through a video and audio connection and to speak with a few participants during assignments in so-called break-out rooms. In this way we can also facilitate the valuable interaction that takes place on the spot during our workshops online. A maximum of 20 people can participate in this workshop.

You don’t have to create an account with Zoom to participate. Zoom works best if you download the programme. When you order a ticket, you will receive a link by email which allows you to participate in the workshop.
