Conflict Management Workshop
This workshop will offer special attention to the "use of self" in a conflict. The goal is to increase your awareness of what is happening to you in a conflict, help you to identify your blind-spots, and to increase the range of options you have for effective behavior. We will begin with a couple of days of T-group work. There will also be opportunities for self-assessment and feedback from other participants and trainers. In addition to the emphases on the "use of self" you will learn conflict management skills, methods and theory for use in groups and organizations. This event meets the perquisite requirement for more advanced workshops.
