De-Escalation Strategies for Crisis Situations
Overview
Develop the skills to see past a person’s outward behavior and address the underlying intentions that are often miscommunicated during a crisis.
This training empowers you to identify the hidden needs that create friction with customers and colleagues.
Learn how to recognize warning signs for when a customer or coworker is beginning to get agitated, strategies for slowing escalation, and tools to begin de-escalating a situation and working towards an amicable resolution.
Key Takeaways
- Behavioral Identification: Learn to look past outward "noise" and agitation to identify the hidden needs and intentions driving a conflict.
- Strategic Mindset Shift: Trade impulsive "crisis thinking" for a logical, strategic approach to communication under pressure.
- Proactive De-escalation: Gain the tools to recognize rising agitation before it peaks, allowing for earlier and more effective intervention.
Our Speaker will be Michael Williams, Security Specialist, from Chubb Insurance.
