Managing conflict is a critical competency for every leader and employee. Unfortunately, many people choose simply to ignore conflict and hope it goes away by itself, thinking that it’s not my call to resolve it.

However, conflict is an essential part of growth, especially when there is a need to be innovative and creative, when deadlines are tight, and when the directions are unclear.

So, if you prefer to keep quiet while facing a difficult situation, and hope it will blow over, this presentation will be helpful for you to get some confidence and change your perspective of conflicts.

By attending this program, you will:

• Learn to identify the difference between Lively Negotiation and Heated Conflict
• Identify the characteristics of a Successful Negotiator/Conflict Manager and how to stay calm
  when you feel that the conversation turned in the wrong direction
• Negotiation Techniques:  BATNA Analysis and ZOPA Outcomes
• Five levels of Conflict Resolution
• Tips and Tricks to gaining confidence in Negotiation and Conflict Resolution

Join Aina Aliieva (LinkedIn profile) to find confidence in your conflict journey.

Have you heard these complaints from designers and trainers?

• “We want to change our training, but our boss insists on his command and control style.”
• “My SMEs (Subject Matter Experts)  demand that all content must be lectured. So we overload learners.”
• “Our employees complain a lot since we keep training them on the same topic, same subject, over and over again, every year for compliance, but  they are so boring.”
• “Our learners don’t spend time on training and learning, because they are too long.”
• “Our learners find the topics irrelevant.”

The above are just examples of the moaning and complaining of workers, learners, L&D specialists, and leaders. Their “Training Is Broken”. How then, can they fix them?

Ray will discuss the following:

• What are the roots of “evil” in failed or broken training programs?
• How do you classify which one is deeply rooted or is just a lack of knowledge and skills or resources?
• What are superficial fixes and “band-aids” that won’t last?
• How do you fix or improve the problems in the following:?
• Meaningless content
• Long content
• Disinterested learners
• Spoon feeding learning
• Lack of application training
• Boring training

What should successful L&D specialists do? Where is focus fixed in design, authoring, multimedia, platform, and delivery?

When you register you may be able to submit advanced questions on “Broken Training” and receive a response from Ray.
