Crucial Conversations
11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 15 | Room 308-10 Lory Student Center
We are bringing David D’Alessandro back for one of the most popular learning sessions from the 2015 UA Retreat. “Crucial Conversations: How to Communicate (and Listen) Effectively” will teach you how to manage the stress that can come from conflicts and difficult conversations. This interactive workshop will look at the different conflict styles individuals have, how to elicit information, how to listen for key concepts, and how to communicate without escalating. To RSVP, please accept the Oct. 5 Outlook invite from Alexis Kanda-Olmstead, or e-mail her at Alexis.Kanda-Olmstead@Colostate.edu. Please note: The original date was in October, but due to schedules, we have moved it to November.
