Defusing Verbal Aggression
What if you could remain calm, change perceptions, and shape behaviour without getting annoyed, angry or frustrated by anyone at any time?
Anyone Who Struggles With Confrontation Will Benefit From This Training
The escalation of a confrontation is not always due to the actions of the initiator; rather, it is often influenced by the manner in which first responders manage the situation. The ability to defuse difficult and aggressive conversations is an essential skill; yet, we often only practice our conflict de-escalation skills when we are already in a conflict situation.
When someone is already yelling, using profanity, acting disrespectfully, or making threats towards you, this is not the time to be learning how to defuse such situations. Now, is the time to arm both you and your staff with the right conflict-defusing skills before a crisis occurs. Content experts will address specific issues and help individuals achieve their goals.
Managers, Supervisors and Frontline Staff who deal with Confrontation Should Attend
Industry experts facilitate this highly interactive face-to-face workshop in a supportive and safe learning environment. This program is particularly empowering for individuals who lack confidence in their abilities, have not received formal training, or possess some skills but seek new ideas and strategies applicable to real-life situations. Managers, Supervisors, and Front-line Staff who want to manage stress, anxiety, and emotions and arm themselves with proven skills when confronted with difficult people will significantly benefit.
