Our Clients Love Our
Approach to Communication
[This work] really helped me better understand how to manage up and manage out more than I knew. I understand how my personality best interacts with my supervisor much more. I have also been able to adjust to better interact with peers. One of the things I really, really appreciate was projecting the power better - I am much better at working at the right level and not being pulled down.
It blew my mind how complicated we make things and how simple it really can be when we just strip everything away and get down to the facts. EVERYONE needs this. Every manager, leader, parent, teacher, coach, counselor, etc... basically, anyone who communicates with others needs to take [Navigating Challenging Dialogue].
[Navigating Challenging Dialogue] teaches skills and processes that are transferable across virtually any occupation and environment, and are the difference between effective leaders and transformational leaders by addressing critical communication and leadership flaws commonly found in leadership.

Turn This Conversation Around
The 4-Stage Process for Communication with Connection
Our ability to dialogue is essential to how we work, solve problems, and connect. Yet we are increasingly facing communication that feels more like a debate.
With emotionally charged conversations, we dig into our position trying to be heard and understood. When we're weary of conflict, we start avoiding conversations altogether. Either way, healthy communication breaks down. Everyone is left unsatisfied, often with damaged relationships.
There is another option: you can have positive, productive conversations — even when you may not agree.
Navigating Challenging Dialogue® is a unique 4-stage process for framing communication to create connections and get results. Beth Wonson teaches you how to turn your conversations around using real-world examples of fractured trust and unhealthy conflict. A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE!
