Description | We’ve all been there—needing to deal with conflict between co-workers, Administrators, professors, staff, or with students. It would be great if we could just make it all go away, but avoidance doesn’t usually work. Instead, conflicts tend to persist and escalate, and leaders and staff spend a lot of time and energy putting out fires. The good news: you can learn to manage conflict with more ease. In this short workshop, you will learn a few essential tips and tools for navigating conflict more effectively: - Understand yourself and conflict.
- Introduce and briefly practice a few effective inner strategies and communication techniques to navigate conflict.
