Navigating pushback: Turn resistance into momentum
ℹ️ About This Event
Resistance isn’t the end of the road. It’s the beginning of real influence.
You’re doing meaningful work. But not everyone sees it that way.
Whether it’s skepticism, competing priorities, or past failed attempts, pushback can feel personal and exhausting.
This 60-minute interactive session will help you decode the resistance you’re facing so you can respond with clarity and confidence. You’ll learn how to reframe objections, stay grounded in the moment, and transform tension into productive movement.
Does this sound like you?
You’re hitting walls in key conversations. And it’s starting to drain your energy.
You sense resistance but don’t know how to meet it. You want to stay open, but you also need to make progress.
You want to stay calm and confident. Even when the room feels tense or dismissive.
Join us for a 60-minute interactive lunch workshop, where you will:
Understand the psychology of resistance
Learn what’s really going on beneath objections and delays.
Practice real-time reframing
Shift the dynamic in the moment with tools that create curiosity instead of conflict.
Build your resilience and presence
Stay composed, clear, and connected even under pressure.
You’ll walk away with:
A framework to diagnose and respond to pushback
Tools to turn resistance into insight and forward motion
Renewed clarity and confidence in high-stakes conversations
Resistance is not a threat. It’s an invitation. Learn how to meet it and move through it.
