add to outlook add to google calendar remind me
Anger is a natural, adaptive response to threats; it inspires powerful, often aggressive, feelings and behaviours, which allow us to fight and to defend ourselves when we are attacked. A certain amount of anger, therefore, is necessary to our survival.
On the other hand, we can't physically lash out at every person or object that irritates or annoys us -laws, social norms, and common sense place limits on how far our anger can take us.
Remaining calm, professional, and empathetic when dealing with angry colleagues, customers and personal relationships is difficult for any of us, but there are skills that can be used to help us manage our own anger, express our frustration and anger effectively, as well as defuse anger in others and re-establish effective dialogue.
Participants will be exposed to theory; techniques and approaches for effectively managing defensive, angry feelings and behaviours, including self-management strategies, as well as strategies to defuse, set limits and disengage.
