Minnesota Ag Connection - 06/24/2019

Stressful times in agriculture can trigger bad news and difficult conversations. Fortunately, these situations don't have to be uncomfortable or unproductive. Learn ways to prepare yourself for smoother interactions that will lead to better outcomes for everyone.

This free, 3-hour workshop offers strategies and tips you can use to bring your best self forward to the tough talks ahead, and precautions to keep yourself safe in highly charged situations.

People who should consider attending include lenders, mediators, agency staff, clergy, educators, farmers, veterinarians, social service providers, and other agricultural advisors and businesspeople.

All sessions run from 9 a.m. to noon. There are three upcoming sessions planned:

- July 8, Marshall, Southwest Minnesota State University

- July 9, Faribault, South Central College

- July 10, St. Cloud, Saint Cloud Technical & Community College
