Concerned about discussions of opposing political views at work?

Election season is here, bringing with it a flood of discussions, debates, and distractions. Add global tensions dominating the news, and it's easy to see why employees might struggle to stay focused… especially if they have opposing views from their colleagues… and are discussing those opposing views at work.?

Sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Politics and global events spark polarizing views. They just do. And when those views are openly discussed at work, they can quickly escalate into hurt feelings or conflict. Left unchecked, they can evolve into a longer lasting environment of unhappiness, poor morale, and lack of loyalty to the team or organization.

So, recognize and address these tensions proactively.

Our upcoming free webinar on Managing Incivility and Conflict in Political Discussions at Work will offer tools to do just that.?

Attend, and take your team from:

• Tense and uncivil conflict to respectful conversations and understanding
• Convincing those with opposing views they’re wrong to truly hearing each other out
• Venting around people who don’t share their views to maintaining respect for people who don’t share their views

And take your managers from:

• Unsure of how to step in or keep the peace to confidently setting expectations
• Avoiding bad actors not following the ground rules to coaching them to understand the impact of their behavior on others.

Election seasons and global tensions - and the high emotions that come along with those events - are inevitable, but their damaging impact on your workplace doesn’t have to be.

By taking proactive steps and attending our webinar, you can ensure your team remains engaged, focused, and resilient, no matter what external challenges arise.
