In medicine, communication isn’t just a soft skill, it’s the difference between building trust and breaking it. This session takes a candid look at common missteps that can create tension on clinical teams and lead to difficult conversations with leadership. The presentation will explore how these behaviors show up, how they’re perceived, and, most importantly, what you can do to avoid them. Attendees will leave with practical strategies to navigate tough interactions and communicate in ways that foster stronger working relationships. To be presented by Jill Weber, PhD, Director of Communication, Office of Graduate Medical Education, UICOMP. Teaching Assistant Professor, Dept. of Health Sciences Education and Pathology, UICOMP.
