GUEST:
Diane A. Ross teaches entrepreneurs and professionals how to tackle difficult conversations fearlessly.
After a 14 year career as a litigation lawyer, she learned that the guns-blazing communication style that won cases in the court was damaging the relationships in the rest of her life.
That realization led her on a 10 year journey to uncover the secrets of effective communication in times of conflict.
She brought her lawyer’s zealousness to the process and devoured the research on the topic, trained in Advanced Negotiation and Mediation at Harvard Law School, became a Certified Executive Coach and, in 2012, started Elephant Conversations to bring her system for tackling difficult conversations to the world because she believes that each one of us could be one conversation away from having ANYTHING WE WANT.
An accomplished and sought after speaker, Diane was a 2013 semi-finalist for North America’s Next Greatest Speaker Competition hosted by the prestigious eWomen Network and is the author of The Elephant of the Office: Super-Simple Strategies for Difficult Conversations at Work.
Today, Diane brings her easy-to-implement tips and strategies to hundreds of people and organizations through webinars and speaking events.
