If this sounds familiar

You know something needs to be said.

  • A manager keeps repeating the same behaviour.
  • They get results, but the way they’re leading is affecting everyone around them.
  • Performance has slipped, or expectations are unclear.
  • There’s tension everyone can feel, but nobody is addressing.

You’ve thought and prayed about it. You’ve given another reminder, corrected the work yourself, or told yourself you’ll address it when things calm down. But the issue is still there. How do you address it without making things worse?

While you wait, the issue doesn’t wait with you.

  • The behaviour continues
  • Other people compensate
  • Trust erodes and morale suffers

It’s usually not that you don’t care. It’s that you care about both the issue and the relationship. But what started as one avoided conversation can become a much bigger leadership problem.

Watch first

Why the conversation you’re avoiding may already be costing more than you think.

Speak the truth in love.

Ephesians 4:15

Avoiding conflict isn’t the same thing as making peace. Richard approaches difficult conversations through biblical principles of prayer, humility, listening, responsibility and peacemaking, beginning with your own heart.

You don’t need the perfect words.You do need to prepare.

Bring one real conversation. Pause, think, write and pray through it with the workbook beside you.

“Richard’s questions helped me recognise my own perspective, analyse the situation differently, and figure out ways to approach it respectfully and in a godly manner.”

— Sebastian Sequeira, Ministry Leader
Sebastian went on to have the crucial conversations he had been facing, work through the problems, and gain greater confidence in communicating with his leaders and colleagues.

“Richard’s professional and powerful questions always cut to the core, helping me clarify my thoughts and uncover blind spots. He always had ways to help me untangle my messy thoughts, find order, and see a glimmer of light.”

Quick questions

Difficult workplace and leadership conversations: performance issues, recurring behaviour, unclear expectations, strained working relationships, accountability, feedback and conflict.

It’s intentionally taught from a Christian worldview, including prayer, reflection on motives, speaking the truth in love and pursuing genuine peace. The communication principles may help more broadly, but the clinic is designed for Christian executives and leaders.

About 30 minutes of video teaching. Allow extra time to pause and work through the workbook for your own situation.

No. Those situations should involve the appropriate HR, legal, pastoral or other qualified authorities.

Richard also works privately with executives and senior leaders on specific leadership situations. Details about additional support are included inside the clinic.

The conversation probably isn’t getting easier while you wait.

You don’t need to know exactly how the other person will respond, or script every word. But you can prepare your heart, clarify what needs to be addressed, and decide how you’re going to move forward.
