CONFLICT COMMUNICATIONS WORKSHOP:
Feeling frustrated and hesitant when addressing challenging conversations? Are you confused on how the situation got so out of hand? You have the best of intentions yet they end up in disagreement and tension. Learn how to:
Assess those situations & determine where things went wrong.
Understand perspectives & biases that may affect outcome
Break down the disagreement & generate options
Learn techniques to reframe the situation & leave with proven tools that will change the dynamics of those relationships.
Changing the outcome of those difficult and frustrating conversations builds trust and connects people making it easier to:
make your point without resistance;
problem solve together creating a solution that meets everyone interests; and
generate options, eliminate confusion, and improve interpersonal skills.
Needed: An open mind and a curious attitude pertaining to a difficult conversation you've had or conflicting relationship you are dealing with.
What to expect: Breakdown of that conversation or relationship to better understand the interests of everyone involved. Strategy and options on how to change the dynamics between you both. And time to brainstorm options and practice a more effective way to handle future conversations. We start off with body movement to learn and experience the benefits of staying grounded and detached from the outcomes. Leave with a practiced plan and dialog for future interactions.
Join us the hour before for yoga + meditation to start the workshop with a fresh outlook and open mindset.
