What:
This webinar will explore the many types of apologies (including full, partial, rapport, ritual, and transactional) as well as the effect of timing, delivery, emotionality and sincerity. We will focus on how different cultures view forgiveness and saving face and the impact of these beliefs on both giving and receiving apologies. With a more complete understanding of the intricacies of an apology we can learn how to seek a greater level of resolution and closure in our communications and negotiation with others by giving and receiving apologies in a way that is more mindful and aware.
