ISOLAS hosted another successful quarterly briefing in partnership with Women in Enterprise, bringing together professionals to explore workplace conversations and communication challenges.
Today's session was jointly led by ISOLAS Partner Samantha Grimes and Fiona Young, Head of Employment at Ramparts, focusing on workplace conversations and the risks that can arise from poor communication.
Sam drew on over 20 years' experience advising businesses on employment law, highlighting how miscommunication and poorly handled conversations can escalate into grievances, allegations of bullying, and wider workplace challenges.
Fiona complemented this by focusing on intention and approach how to build rapport, maintain relationships, strengthen trust, and encourage collaboration. She also shared practical tools to help structure conversations, avoid common pitfalls, and achieve more constructive outcomes.
The session was very well attended, with strong engagement throughout and excellent feedback from participants.
