Making Controversial Announcements
April 24, 2012
Around here, we don’t look backwards for very long… We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things because we’re curious… and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
-Walt Disney
-Walt Disney
"So rather than announcing a controversial decision to an entire group, prep people one-on-one.... To forestall anxiety, open a dialogue with the other person... address the concern raised in response...
"Is the other person uncertain about the future? Share the scenario you expect to unfold.
"Does the reorganization jeopardize a project? Share plans for keeping it afloat.
"Demonstrate that you get it, keeping in mind that you can address emotion better with body language than with words. Make sure yours conveys concern and empathy."

These are not your typical training DVDs. No scripts. No staged events. Imagine sitting down for a one-on-one conversation with some of the leaders in the field of early care and education. Imagine them presenting at your next class, staff development, or training session. This is the concept behind Voices on DVD.
This powerful series of DVDs offers you practical ideas and experienced insights from seasoned professionals who speak with the passion and perspective that can only come from years of working with directors, teachers, young children, and their families.
