    2. Coaching conversations
    3. Delegation conversations
    4. Confrontation conversations
 
During class, you will:

    -Identify practices that are holding you back from open and meaningful conversations.
    -Gain the capacity to connect with your colleagues and customers at a deeper level.
    -Engage in active dialogue sessions applying the key practices that lead to more open, candid and respectful communication.
