Media Training Stresses Effective Communication With The Press
When I run media training seminars, I stress that reporters need help from anyone with expertise in the topics that journalists cover. No reporter can prosper without sources. Even the rawest cubs know they must have authoritative quotes to back up both sides of any story dealing with conflict -- political, financial, zoning, hostile takeovers, executive compensation, you name it. Controversy puts their stories on the front page. Where you come in is that you offer to help the business writer at your local daily or regional business periodical, or a byline name you see in one of those niche publications that are prospering as part of the so-called "trade press." React to a story they write, and tell them they can call on you for on-the-record expertise or "background." Media training can help you reach out for that free publicity.

The Art of Listening
Really listening to someone and caring about their feelings is a great gift, but it is important to understand when listening is appropriate and when it is not.

Conflict Resolution
Most conflict is not right or wrong, it just is. It is a natural reaction when we or others feel challenged, pressured or threatened. Conflict is indeed needed to help individuals and organization grow, develop and mature. There are several basic needs such as security, identity, self-actualization, bonding and recognition that result in conflict and drive the need for conflict resolution.

3 Reasons HR Interventions Fail
Conflict is an everyday occurrence in most organizations and guess what, it usually gets passed to HR to “handle the problem and fix it”. Most strategies are the quick fix, not the long-term change to really understand how to work through conflict and get to innovation.

How do I deal with client objections?
Many sales people will tell you one of the biggest worries in sales, besides prospecting, is dealing with customer objections. Its true many people do not like dealing with objections or conflict, however, it is also true that many people unintentionally create objections and conflict by not understanding a customer’s real needs or priorities and failing to find common ground. In my opinion ‘overcoming objections’ is often blown out of proportion in terms of the issue it claims to be. Too much time and attention is spent on objections in sales meetings and sales training rather than focusing on the skills and resources needed to help sales people eliminate objections from the sales process in the first place.
Resolving Conflict
The value of conflict is a controversial topic in many circles. Some organizations thrive on conflict for its own sake while others avoid conflict at any cost. Either extreme is dysfunctional as conflict can play a vital role in a healthy organization. The challenge is to focus, use and defuse conflict.
Starting Over Every Day
Success in life, both personally and professionally, is dependent upon our ability to successfully interact with the people around us. There is no success without positive relationships in our lives. A successful relationship is not a relationship without conflict. There is no such thing as a relationship without conflict; therefore, a successful relationship is one in which conflict is resolved. Too many people make the mistake in their personal or professional lives of avoiding conflicts and simply not dealing with them. While, in the short term, this tactic may result in a brief period of peace, the reality is that the conflict continues to build to an unmanageable point when it explodes, often making a resolution at that point impossible.

Conquering Conflict Management
As women, we are often taught from the time we are children that conflict is bad and something to be avoided. At the minimum, conflict makes many of us uncomfortable and unsure of ourselves. This unease can put us at a professional disadvantage because conflict in the workplace is an inevitable part of doing business and isn’t necessarily a bad thing. On the contrary, appropriately expressed and properly managed conflict can actually be productive and can build relationships in the long run. Check out this article to learn some conflict management strategies.
