How To Handle Emotionally Charged Situations In The Workplace

11:00AM PT • 12:00PM MT • 1:00PM CT • 2:00PM ET

Few skills are more important to your career than your ability to stand strong and be calm under pressure, stress, chaos, and conflict.

Do you ever find yourself knee-deep in an emotionally charged situation that you don’t know how to handle? Ever regret your response? You’re not alone!

The truth is, handling emotionally charged situations at work requires a specific set of skills that most of us have never had the opportunity to learn.

If you don’t possess the tools and techniques you need to manage confrontation, anger, and emotional tension, you’re bound to feel frustrated, anxious, and even stressed whenever these situations arise.

How you handle emotions at work speaks volumes about you. Don’t risk saying the wrong thing!

This powerful hour of training is packed with essential how-tos you need to identify and disarm emotionally charged situations in the early stages — before tensions escalate out of control.

You’ll discover how to hold your own in any situation and how to turn conflict into an opportunity to build stronger, more positive working relationships.

And that’s just for starters! You’ll also get tips for staying in control when tears threaten, and you’ll learn strategies for shutting down the “pressure cooker” tactics of others. You’ll be amazed by just how easy it is to tame unproductive emotions and build cooperation once you’ve mastered these new techniques.

Don’t wait any longer to put an end to the anxiety and frustration that unchecked emotions bring to your life. Enroll today.
