Sarah Sheehan and Toby Hervey of Bravely: Addressing Workplace Conflicts Proactively
Listen now
Description
Bravely offers conflict and communication coaching for employees navigating issues in the workplace--and so its founders know a thing or two about getting out ahead of issues before they tank a company's culture and worse, bottom line.  Through Bravely’s application, employees can confidentially describe the issue they’re facing and schedule a phone consultation with a ‘Pro’, an expert coach or HR professional with deep experience in helping resolve conflict, structure effective communication plans, and develop skills for constructive work relationships. We talk in the episode about how every single company has issues.  Hopefully not all of them are as serious as the ones that make headlines, but 65% of performance problems are linked to strained personal relationships, which happens everywhere.  Effective communication among colleagues, even for the small stuff that a lot of people let go, yields a significant impact on workplace wellbeing.
