Leading Thrugh Conversations That Connect
Turn important difficult or conflictive conversations into opportunities to effectively connect, collaborate, and create change. 
Business leaders lose too much valuable time and resources trying to resolve misunderstandings, and conflicts that lead to low engagement and reduced productivity.
In the same way, busy driven couples complain they “don’t communicate well,” and there is conflict and negativity that is hard to overcome.
Do you know how to have conversations that connect? Open dialogue engages the often-forgotten power of conversation to address challenges and transform relationships. By leading through conversations you can close the gap between leadership potential and performance. By having conversations that connect you can re-ignite your love and enjoy a positive connected relationship.
How to Lead Conversations that Connect
As a conversation strategist and consultant I can guarantee you that if you want to be more effective and have more influence, transformative conversations are your best and quickest way to remove obstacles, facilitate engagement, increase productivity, and allow for change.
The type of conversations we encourage are based on the principles of dialogue. Dialogue comes from the Greek root dia meaning across or through, and logos which means word or study. The picture or image that this suggests is a stream of meaning flowing among, through, and between us.

Proven results
Learning to take back control of my life by controlling the way I think and react has made a huge difference for me. I was looking at myself as a failure and feeling like one. My stress levels were getting out of control. I found myself getting angry easily, and blaming everybody and everything for the way I felt. By becoming crystal clear on what I needed to change and how to do it, and by feeling supported in the process, I can now smile again and feel empowered to be more successful in my work and in my life. –Peter
