Discussing Politics at Work
Debating the merits and drawbacks of particular political issues is an important part of a healthy democracy. That said, introducing our personal political opinions into the workplace runs a significant risk of causing conflict between people with differing opinions who would otherwise work very well together. Discussing Politics at Work is a training course designed to help people understand which kinds of political conversations make sense in the workplace, which kinds don’t, and what to do in the event that a conversation about politics starts to get out of hand.
Talking about politics – even thinking about talking about politics – can be a tense prospect. That’s why we worked hard to make this course as entertaining as it is educational. So get ready to laugh while you learn about Discussing Politics at Work. Another training course from The Jeff Havens Company, where we provide serious solutions in a seriously funny way.
