This session supports governors and leaders to approach conflict with confidence and curiosity rather than avoidance. Participants explore the causes of conflict, their personal response style, and how to shift challenging conversations towards constructive outcomes. Through practical tools and structured discussion, the session develops skills in managing emotions, communicating clearly, and finding common ground—ultimately strengthening relationships and decision-making within governance.
This session is ran by an experienced leadership coach, facilitator, and former teacher who specialises in helping people communicate with confidence, clarity, and impact.
Suitable for all governors and trustees.
