Description
Language shapes trust, signals values, and defines how people experience leadership and culture. In today’s divided and fast-changing world, the words leaders choose can build connection or erode credibility. This virtual workshop equips HR, nonprofit, and higher education leaders to navigate complex conversations with confidence, clarity, and purpose.
Through interactive discussion and practical tools, participants will learn how to approach sensitive topics without hesitation while aligning communication with organizational mission and values. You will leave with actionable strategies to strengthen trust, engage diverse perspectives, and lead conversations that move teams and communities forward.
Recording Notice
This virtual workshop will be recorded, and the main session will be shared with participants afterward. Breakout room discussions will not be recorded, ensuring those conversations remain private and off-camera.
Objectives
Through reflection, dialogue, and practical application, participants will:
Examine how language shapes trust, signals values, and influences how people experience leadership and organizational culture.
Strengthen the ability to communicate with confidence and purpose in divided or fast-changing environments.
Assess current communication practices to ensure alignment with mission, credibility, and stakeholder trust.
Practice navigating sensitive or high-stakes conversations through guided reflection, peer dialogue, and real-world examples.
