Do you often shy away from confrontation, finding it difficult to address critical issues? Perhaps you find yourself tip-toeing around the proverbial ‘elephant in the room,’ unsure of how to broach the topic. And when you do muster the courage, do you get nervous about how to initiate the tough conversation?

Dealing with pushback and negative responses can be stress-inducing, causing you to stew on important matters in fear of rocking the boat.

And even if you do confront the issue head-on, it may sometimes feel like the conversation veers off course and goes pear-shaped.

In this episode, we dive into the inevitable and essential aspect of being a business owner: challenging conversations.

Imagine possessing the skills to overcome your fears, embracing confidence and certainty when addressing issues head-on. What if you could manage your emotions in a way that keeps you calm and composed throughout difficult conversations? And, most importantly, what if these challenging discussions could actually strengthen connections?

Our guest today is Louise Davis of Louise Davis Consulting,  is an expert in helping leaders navigate tough talks. She has worked with countless leaders to successfully create healthy relationships with and within their teams, all while achieving outstanding results.
