Speech-language pathologists are experts in supporting communication breakdowns in therapy, yet when tension shows up with colleagues, supervisors, families, or interdisciplinary team members, it can feel far more complicated. This course reframes workplace conflict as a breakdown in adult pragmatics and shows how your existing clinical skill set can be applied beyond the therapy room.
You will explore common sources of workplace conflict, recognize unhelpful communication patterns, and learn language-based strategies for de-escalation, assertive messaging, and repair. The focus is on addressing concerns clearly, calmly, and professionally while protecting relationships, maintaining boundaries, and preserving your professional credibility.
