How to Create a Drama Free Workplace

Recorded Session
90 Minutes

Workplace drama wears people down. It shows up as constant gossip, personality clashes, aggressive, passive or passive-aggressive behavior, meetings dominated by a few voices, and colleagues who feel stressed and overworked.

This 90-minute webinar on how to create a drama-free workplace gives you a 5-step process for removing unproductive drama and strategies for redirecting it. You'll learn a model of the three roles people play to create drama and how to respond to each, along with specific skills for handling aggression, passivity and passive-aggressive words or actions.

The session also shows how to spot even subtle drama early, stop it before it escalates and politely decline invitations to take part, so you can stay calm and keep your focus.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

Drama, conflict, gossip and aggression drain energy and productivity. With the right skills and tools, you can deal with them while staying calm, get more done and enjoy your work more.
