Intentional Trust and Courageous Conversations

In this post I want to share with you some thoughts on the importance of trust-based conversations, or what are sometimes referred to as courageous conversations.

You know what I mean I’m sure – a conversation that requires truth, respect, empathy, care, and careful wording.

Most relationships at some stage, whether at work or in your personal life will require you to have a courageous conversation.

I hope you find it entertaining, informative and of value.
