Learning How to Have Courageous Conversations Webinar
Working in animal welfare is rewarding, but it can also be emotionally taxing, filled with endless highs and lows. Most of us are pretty good at learning the practical and professional skills needed to work in this field and deal with its challenges. Many of us, however, continue to struggle with incorporating those harder-to-define but equally important skills that help us acknowledge and work through our emotions in healthy ways. This session will highlight the concept of courageous conversations with the goal of providing animal welfare staff and volunteers with the tools they need to navigate an emotionally complex working environment.
Presenter: Laura Maloney – Principal, Adisa
