Emotion Management Lunch Talk in Thailand
Emotions influence what people say, notice and decide at work. This lunch talk explores how to recognise a feeling, understand its trigger and choose a response that keeps the conversation useful.
Practise naming emotions, pausing before a reaction and expressing concerns without blame. Participants connect these habits with conflict, recovery and more respectful working relationships.
Delivered privately for organisations in Thailand, this lunch talk runs from 30 to 120 minutes and can be adapted to your industry, team and workplace context.

What is this lunch talk about?
Managing an emotion begins with noticing it clearly. Explore the difference between a feeling, an interpretation and an action, then consider which response best serves the situation.
Workplace scenarios help participants examine triggers, empathetic communication and recovery after a tense moment. The emphasis is on usable choices rather than expecting constant calm.
Choose from 30, 45, 60, 90 or 120, for 1 to 25 participants onsite, virtually or at an arranged venue. Examples can reflect the emotional pressures in your working week.
