Elevarse Performance Consulting

Avoiding difficult conversations isn’t saving you conflict—it’s costing you respect.

Leaders who shy away from addressing issues directly often end up with disengaged teams, eroded trust, and unresolved performance problems.

That’s why I use the PREPARE Framework for handling workplace conflicts:

✅ Purpose – clarify why the conversation matters

✅ Research – gather facts and perspectives

✅ Emotions – check your mindset before engaging

✅ Plan – outline structure and key points

✅ Active Listening – hear before you respond

✅ Resolve – work toward shared solutions

✅ Evaluate – reflect on outcomes and adjust

💡 Here’s a thought: “What’s the hardest conversation you’ve had to have as a leader?”

Let’s normalize learning from these tough moments instead of avoiding them.
