Starting Difficult Conversations in the Workplace

When faced with the challenging task of broaching a sensitive subject at work, most people feel condemned to make a choice – either cut to the chase and be direct, but appear brutal and abrupt; or tiptoe around the subject through fear of upsetting or offending the other person.  Either carries risk for the professional relationship. 

In this webinar, Sarah Hanson from Interactifs, addresses how to announce a difficult subject in a way which will give you the best chance of both maintaining the relationship and building a solution for the future. 

It also looks at how to react to difficult news in a way which will allow you to remain calm, think fast and give you the best chance of turning the situation around.

Gender Pension Gap: What it is and what you can do about it

Women are, on average, retiring with only 60% of the pension savings of their male colleagues. What makes this even more of an issue is that because women on average live longer than men, these savings actually need to be more, not less. 

So how has this come about?  Well the gender salary gap is a significant contributor, but there are many more factors at play.  In this webinar, we discuss these and also, more crucially, we will discuss practical steps that we can all take to help address this issue.

How We Hold Ourseleves Back, And What To Do About It

‘When you get out of your own way … magic happens.’ - Judy Reynolds

When we’re perpetually stressed and worried, or we’re not quite where we want to be in our careers or in our lives generally,  it’s tempting to point the blame squarely on external factors. We might attribute our stress to our demanding boss and unrelenting workload, or our lack of progression to an absence of opportunities within our organization. And the more we look to these external factors, the more stuck and frustrated we feel. In reality, these external factors matter only when we think they do.  

In this session we’ll be exploring: 

• Five common mindsets and thought patterns that keep us stressed out and stuck
• Recognising and dealing with these patterns in the moment
• Connecting to your inner wisdom and taking aligned action to move forward

You’ll come away with practical tools and tips to deepen your fulfilment and achieve your goals in and outside of work.
