Welcome to The HR Exchange Meet-Up.

This is a fantastic opportunity for HR professionals and people managers to get together in a relaxed setting. Please use our network to meet others working in HR to build your networks, share ideas and provide a valuable sounding board.

Overview:

In this Meet-up we will be discussing how to make emotional conversations easier in the workplace with special guest, Amanda Cookson.

Many people try to avoid emotions at work because they find it awkward. You might worry you’ll make things worse. You might be secretly prioritising your own comfort by not getting involved. But ignoring your own and other people’s feelings doesn’t make them go away. Emotions leak out in a million small ways. Sometimes they explode.

As a leader, you can’t avoid emotions, but you can allow for their healthy expression. Emotion is data you can use to help yourself and your team do your best work.

Key Discussion Topics:

  • How to make emotional conversations easier- Amanda will be sharing some conversational starters you can use to have better conversations straight away.
