Use emotions to help (not hinder) workplace disputes
Our CEO, Danae Shell is joined by behaviour and dispute experts, Debbie Androlia and Graeme Gregory from The Thrivelihood.
Event details
Suffering unfair or toxic treatment in the workplace is stressful.
Standing up to your employer and navigating the Employment Tribunal process surfaces a lot of emotions that can affect how we behave and whether we achieve the best outcome.
Whether you are raising a complaint at work or representing yourself at Employment Tribunal, managing your emotions is key to engaging effectively in difficult conversations and helping you move forward.
In this video, you'll learn how to:
- Identify emotions and how they impact communication, behaviour and outcomes when dealing with a workplace issue, grievance or Employment Tribunal
- Use your emotions to help (not hinder) you to take action and move forward with your claim
- Develop techniques to engage more effectively in conversations, conflict and negotiations with your employer
- Share your story and perspective effectively to the Tribunal

Co-hosts

Through a combination of training, coaching and mediation techniques, Graeme teaches individuals and teams to learn and develop the skills to disagree with confidence. In his spare time you can find Graeme running or playing tennis, although the Wimbledon dream is sadly over.
