During these turbulent times, there are many important and risky conversations to have that require bravery as well as skill and planning. In this two hour training, the Harvard Ombuds Office will dive deeper into dialogue skills for having a brave conversation that can positively affect the outcome. Using a template to organize their brave conversation, participants will explore the essential elements of a brave conversation as well as skills to use during their brave conversation. Lastly, we’ll practice these skills to increase confidence and comfort around having challenging conversations.
