IASB In-District Workshop:
Fierce Conversations
Master the art of fierce conversations — authentic discussions that tackle issues head-on. Drawing from the bestseller Fierce Conversations by Susan Scott, this workshop will help your board ditch the fluff and start addressing the uncomfortable truths that are stifling progress, cultivating transparent dialogue that sparks change. Don't keep kicking those tough conversations down the road. It's time to have those real talks you've been avoiding, one honest word at a time. The rewards? Improved board governance, stronger relationships, and greater overall fulfillment.Fierce Conversations is a type of Board Self-Evaluation. The Illinois Open Meetings Act allows boards to meet in closed session for the purpose of board self-evaluation when meeting with a representative of a statewide association of which the public body is member. 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(16).
