Do difficult workplace conversations terrify you?
Does the idea of having to tell a colleague something they won’t like make you just want to pack up for the day and go home instead?

If that’s the case then returning guest Dom Price might have the mindset flip and strategies you need to approach these conversations with enthusiasm instead of trepidation.

Dom is the resident Work Futurist at Atlassian one of the largest software businesses in the world and has responsibilities spanning 7 global R&D centres.

In this episode Dom shares:

-         🔄 Two things you might be doing that are actually making conversations more difficult.

-         💡 Tricks you can use to make difficult conversations easier.

-         📝 The unique way he prepares for tough conversations that you can do as well.
