Title: Utilizing Conflict Resolution to Build Your NACADA Relational Core Competency
Lead Presenter: Tayler Mesnard
Date: December 31, 1969    Time: 6:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Room:
Abstract: The relational component of advising emphasizes the importance of a positive working relationship with each student (Gordon et al., 2008). When advising appointments turn into conversations that are crucial to a student's success, how can we, as advisors navigate those important conversations while continuing to build a positive relationship. This presentation will highlight strategies from 'Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High,' that assist in building a framework to have a conversation which strengthens working relationships (Grenny et al., 2021). These strategies can be used to plan ahead or implemented when a conversation takes an unexpected turn.
