August/ 2019 & IF THE CONVERSATION STARTS FEELING LIKE EMOTIONS ARE GETTING IN THE WAY OF RESOLVING THE ISSUE, YOU AND THE OTHER PERSON HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO STOP THE CONVERSATION AND TAKE TIME OUT. What is important here though is that you need to return to the conversation; you don’t want to walk away to regroup your thoughts and never finish it. The  issue certainly won’t be resolved that way. Lesley has over 30 years’ experience in the learning and development field working in partnership with organisations to help them achieve the results they want. She helps organisations grow their business through investing in their people and helps people invest in themselves.
