Hi, I'm Edwina Griffin. Today, I noticed behaviours in my dog and newly acquired rescue piglet that reminded me of the workplace. Territorial issues, conflict, and stress are present in both environments. Sometimes, these behaviours are evident and manageable, but other times they go unnoticed, impacting organizational culture.

On Saturday, August 2nd, I'll be delivering the keynote opening for the Women's Ignite Fitness Conference, discussing the silent killers: bullying, harassment, and abuse. These issues affect all businesses, directly or indirectly. We'll explore how to identify and manage these problems within your team, the shift from conflict to bullying, and the three most common types of bullies.

You'll learn your own conflict style and the five common traps in difficult conversations. I'll share a plan to prepare for these conversations, emphasizing that managing them isn't innate but requires preparation. Join us for an interactive and fun session on a serious topic. Get your tickets now for a fantastic networking opportunity. I look forward to seeing you there!
