About this ebook
Effective communication is an essential skill for navigating today’s world, in everything from building a flourishing business to building a happy family life. But in your daily life, are you having necessary conversations, or are you stuck having difficult ones? Think carefully — there is a difference between the two.
In her Scribd Coach course, Necessary Conversations, author and executive coach Liz Nolley Tillman aims to help listeners navigate and have fruitful necessary conversations: the conversations that have the most impact on our lives, all about listening, learning, and reaching reconciliation. In a world where necessary conversations are often branded as difficult, it can be hard to get around to having these conversations. Enter Tillman’s course, where she outlines the differences between necessary and difficult conversations, addresses key communications “dos” and “don’ts,” and offers an effective structure for preparing to have necessary conversations. She also shares exercises along the way to help you apply what you’ve learned right away.
Get more out of your important conversations — you might find it’s not as hard as you’d thought!

Introduction
Hello, I’m Liz Nolley Tillman, and this is the Scribd course called Necessary Conversations: Changing Your Mindset to Communicate Confidently and Productively.
Welcome to the course! I’m glad to have you here.
Let me tell you a bit more about who I am. For nearly 30 years, I’ve been working as an advisor to the top-level executives at some of the leading companies in corporate America, including UBS Financial Services and Allstate Insurance Company. I also work as a coach for many entrepreneurs and professionals who look to build their brand’s image and put themselves out there.
Staying true to who you are is the main principle of my work as a coach. For years, I’ve often been the only person that looks like me in almost any room. But because of this, I was lucky to gain insight and access spaces that are not available to just anyone. Right now, I’m on the mission to share my knowledge and experience with others.
In this course, I would like to share with you everything I know about having successful and productive conversations. This is often one of the first things I teach the professionals that come to me for coaching. Effective communication is an essential skill in many aspects of our existence, from building a flourishing business to living a happy family life.
I would like to start this course by asking you a simple question: Are you having necessary conversations, or are you stuck having difficult ones? I encourage you to take a minute to think about the conversations you are
