We will look at attitudes, skills and practical ways through conflict.

This can be very hard to do when there is tension in the air. It is often easier to be reactive rather than proactive. Participants will work with interests and values to find common ground in conflict, and learn useful tools for working through difficult situations. They will increase their power to be effective through collaborative approaches. Agenda: • Setting the stage • Conflict styles - yours and theirs • Assertion and aggression • Skills for listening to learn • Skills for talking to influence • Face-saving - yours and theirs • Working with interests and values Date/Time: Thursday, July 25 ~ 8:30 am to 12 noon Location: FIP124 Cost $50

Facilitator: Sally Campbell is a mediator, facilitator, lawyer (retired) and dispute resolution trainer who has been facilitating “difficult conversations” with groups of all sizes since 1985.
