Conflict is inevitable in any workplace-but in museums, where passion runs deep and priorities often compete, navigating disagreements effectively is essential to maintaining a thriving, mission-driven environment. Conflict can be constructive or destructive, depending on how it is managed. When handled effectively, it can lead to growth, innovation, and stronger relationships. When ignored or mismanaged, it can create tension, reduce productivity, and erode trust.
With all that is being done these days to undermine and threaten museums, we have some difficult conversations ahead. This interactive two-part workshop will equip you with the tools to navigate difficult conversations with confidence and clarity. Through real-world scenarios you'll learn strategies to de-escalate tension, build understanding, and turn challenges into opportunity. We'll also explore the role of emotional intelligence and discuss how to navigate toxic situations beyond your control. Between sessions, you'll put these techniques into practice, returning with fresh insights and a refined approach.
