Courageous Conversations Workshop
led by Her Circle Leadership Certified Coaches
Charlie Palumbo & Lauren Supina
Courageous Conversations will leave you with tried and true strategies for assessing and providing your best communication around those conversations that need to be had, but that often come from a place of discomfort. You know those conversations. The ones that you avoid until you can't anymore, or the timing has passed the point of the best outcome possible.
"Stemming from the 'courage' tenet of Her Circle Leadership, Courageous Conversations hones in on those conversations that are instrumental in success, but not always easy to have or even plan. Charlie and Lauren have dug deep into courage and come away with an incredible array of options for finding courage within. We are so excited to support the launch of this program under our
Her Circle Leadership umbrella."
- Leslie Grossman, Founder, Her Circle Leadership

growth in the workplace.
