Navigating Difficult Conversations: Turn Tension into Progress
This course takes a targeted approach to helping learners manage emotional tension and conduct conversations in a way that enables all parties to stay engaged in collaborative dialogue. Learners will shift their mindset from fearing and avoiding difficult conversations to seeing them as the way to make progress on important issues. And they will develop the skills to build trust and respect in every relationship as they navigate sensitive topics.

Franklin Covey’s
Working at the Speed of Trust
When trust is low, people become suspicious, guard communication, speculate, and disengage. As a result, productivity grinds to a crawl, and the costs — whether social, emotional, or financial — increase. We call these trust taxes. When trust is high, people become confident and communication, creativity, and engagement improve. As a result, productivity speeds up and costs decrease. We call these trust dividends. Working at the Speed of Trust® helps you strengthen your trust signals in every relationship to convert trust taxes into trust dividends and propel yourself and your team further, faster.

FAQ<https://ucrlearning.ucr.edu/faq#why-am-i-being-prompted-to-res>: Why am I being prompted to Restart a course?
An important reminder for systemwide compliance
Go ahead and select Restart! This is expected behavior and is simply a warning. It will not cause any problems with your training records or prevent you from completing the activity.
If you have previously completed an online activity, when restarting it, the system will remind you and ask you to confirm you want to restart the activity. When restarting/retaking an activity, the system will add a new attempt in addition to any previous completions to your records.
NOTE: The University of California regularly requires employees and certain contingent workers to retake certain systemwide compliance courses, such as the annual cyber security training. Retraining requirements may be based on UC policies as well as state or federal laws.
[Example of system Restart warning message.]
NEW! Team Compliance Dashboards for Managers & Learning Coordinators
For UC Learning Center users in a manager<https://ucrlearning.ucr.edu/access-roles#manager> or learning coordinator<https://ucrlearning.ucr.edu/access-roles#learning-coordinator>* role, you now have access to the new Team Compliance Dashboards. Once logged into the UC Learning Center, go to the Self > Dashboards > Team Compliance Dashboard menu (shown below) and then select from the following reports:
· Systemwide Required Training – Percentage by Status Crosstab
· Systemwide Required Training – Percentage by Status Bar Chart
· Systemwide Required Training – Nearing Due or Expiration Date
· Systemwide Required Training – Overdue or Expired
· All Required Training – Nearing Due or Expiration Date
· All Required Training – Systemwide Required Training – Overdue or Expired
The crosstab and bar chart reports offer a quick visualization of your team or organization’s compliance metrics with assigned systemwide training. The nearing due or expiration date and overdue or expired reports will provide a detailed list of your direct reports or viewable users who are due to complete or retake assigned trainings – choose from either strictly the systemwide training report or all required training reports.
NOTE:
· Data is refreshed nightly at ~4-5am. Training completions from the current day will display tomorrow.
· At this time, reports in this dashboard can only be exported in a printable format. Click the printer icon to open the report in a new window where you can print it or save as PDF based on your browser settings.
· *Similar to the Manager Dashboard, by default, only data for direct reports will be displayed. To include all the viewable users you have access to, click the cog icon [Screenshot from the UC Learning Center showing the Self menu navigation to the Team Compliance Dashboards.] and under the Direct Report (of logged in user) filter select both the True and False options.

Having Difficult Conversations
Conflict is inevitable — in work and in life. Managers must address performance issues, and colleagues with competing priorities must figure out how to work together. These situations call for having difficult conversations. In this course, Marlene Chism explains how to have difficult conversations, build your communication skills, and improve your relationships, teamwork, and business performance. She explains how to identify underlying differences in work styles, goals, and power dynamics and change the way you view conflict. She provides a model to move the conversation in a positive direction and to determine next steps. Plus, learn how to check for resistance with a single useful phrase.

Creating Psychological Safety
Psychological safety is a key factor in maximizing individual and team performance. Employees who feel psychologically safe are more capable of taking risks, communicating candidly and thinking creatively. People managers can use these tools to build psychological safety on their teams.
