Why is Difficult Conversations Training Important?
Studies show there are around 1.7 million formal disciplinary meetings each year in the UK. Whilst at the same time, around one in four employees have never received a performance review.
These statistics highlight the fact that many managers struggle to have difficult conversations. But they are a vital part of any job. This difficult conversations training for managers course can help you work with employees to resolve issues quickly and support a happier and more productive workforce. If handled incorrectly, or avoided altogether, you will experience ongoing problems that lower morale.
Many would assume that the most difficult conversation a manager can have is informing an employee they are being dismissed. But, in fact, this conversation is easy. Once it is over, the manager’s job is done. They will no longer will be speaking to that employee.
The real difficult conversations are all of the conversations that should come before dismissal. They involve conversations to identify problems, correct behaviour and support employees. This managing difficult conversations training course provides managers with a greater awareness of how to make these conversations more effective and beneficial for everyone.
