This particular session is titled: Spill the Tea but Don’t Burn the Bridge: Using Crucial Conversation Concepts to Make Every Day Run Smoothly.  

One of our R10 expectations is that we all take the Crucial Conversations training to help us connect within and across our teams and service areas. Unless we revisit those principles, though, it's hard to put them into daily, automatic practice. This session will offer gentle reminders, time for self-reflection, quick tips for crucial moments, and maybe even a cup of tea. (If you haven't made it to a full day Crucial Conversations training yet, use this session for a sneak preview!)
