The Women in Sustainable Hydropower (WISH) initiative is dedicated to fostering an inclusive, diverse, and equitable environment within the hydropower sector by empowering women through networking, professional development, and high-impact knowledge sharing.

This webinar focuses on the critical skill of navigating challenging professional discussions with confidence and clarity, a cornerstone for effective leadership and driving positive change in any organisation.

This session will equip participants with practical strategies and frameworks for effectively approaching, managing, and resolving emotionally charged or high-stakes discussions, ensuring outcomes are productive and relationships remain intact.

In the fast-paced and technical field of sustainable hydropower, the ability to address sensitive subjects, whether it's giving constructive criticism, negotiating resources, advocating for diverse perspectives, or managing conflict, is not just a soft skill; it is a foundational element of ethical leadership and essential for accelerating innovation and project success. By mastering these conversations, you strengthen your influence, build trust within your teams, and contribute to a more transparent and efficient industry.
