The Stories We Tell Ourselves: How Assumptions Shape Our Teams and Relationships

The Stories We Tell Ourselves: How Assumptions Shape Our Teams and Relationships

Someone doesn’t respond, and we assume they’re ignoring us. A question feels like criticism. A different approach looks like a lack of commitment. At work and at home, the stories we tell ourselves about other people's intentions can shape how we respond and influence our relationships.

In this webinar, we'll explore how emotional intelligence helps us recognize assumptions, separate facts from interpretations, and approach everyday interactions with greater curiosity and understanding.

Key Takeaways:

• Separate observations from interpretations: Recognize where what happened ends and the story you’re telling yourself begins.

• Replace assumptions with curiosity: Ask questions that clarify understanding before reacting in ways that strain relationships.

All registrants will receive a copy of the webinar recording after the session.
