Dealing with Highly Sensitive Employees: Communication Techniques and Strategies

OVERVIEW

Today’s work force consists of people from all over the world, with many different cultures and ways to communicate. What might seem Ok in one culture might be highly offensive, or even frightening in another. We need to find the balance between honest and sometimes critical communication with the recognition that what we mean mildly might be received as extremely harsh.

This problem is compounded by the conflicting values of constructive criticism and micro-aggression — needing safe places. Some people have been raised as “hot house flowers” unaccustomed to criticism from parents or teachers. Yet, the leadership and management today is being taught the importance of encouraging critical and often divergent points of view.

In this webinar we will share examples of how these differences manifest themselves and offer suggestions for how managers can find a balance. Tips for recognizing when they are dealing with people who are reacting personally and suggestions for modulating their tone, body language and even the words they select will enhance
