| Event Description: |
As School psychologists, social workers, special education teachers and administrators, we often come up against situations where difficult topics must be addressed. What do we know about the best strategies for those moments? What questions should we be asking ourselves before we speak up and what words shall we use so the conversation can be as humane and growth producing as possible? Having Hard Conversations is an interactive workshop and personal approach to mastering the art of challenging conversations. The strategies in the workshop address a wide range of situations, including communications with supervisees, peers, and supervisors and parents. The workshop helps educators at all levels speak with clarity and courage to directly address difficult situations within their schools. Registration deadline: 1/28/15 Note: Due to funding guidelines, 309 seats are available for Oakland County Public Schools and PSA/Charter School employees for $15. There are 8 seats available for participants from Oakland County Private Schools and Agencies, and 8 seats available for out-of-county participants at a cost of $100 per participant. |
