Difficult subjects can make for difficult meetings at the best of times, but with the current COVID-19 pandemic, difficult meetings will have to happen in new ways.
In today's virtual workplace, the humanity behind sensitive and difficult conversations can often be lost through a phone or computer screen. If you want to understand how to engage in difficult conversations in a positive, constructive and efficient way, CMI's very own David McLaughlin will lead the discussion on how to handle challenging conversations in a remote environment.
