Turn The Dread Of Every Manager Into A Strength

Having difficult conversations with members of your team or direct reports takes courage. Unfortunately it is also something every manager has to face. But it can be done, and done well. With our 8 page step-by-step guide and 4 fill-in sections for you to use and re-use for every courageous conversation you have to have you can turn this into one of your strengths as a manager.

Whether they're underperforming, undermining their colleagues, not training their own subordinates or damaging relationships with clients, having difficult conversations with the staff you manage in a way that is productive, rather than adversarial, can seem daunting. Here Sarah Lewis, author of Positive Psychology At Work and Positive Psychology And Change, draws on her 25 years of experience across the world in helping leaders and managers to work in a more positive and appreciative way to guide you through your own courageous conversations.
