How to Deepen Our Humanity at Work

How often do we take time to authentically identify our “conflict tendencies” and improve our communication? Are we committed to enhancing our personal and professional interactions through openly understanding others’ needs and interests (rather than expecting people to simply understand our own)? Knowing how to authentically manage and transform our conflict is essential to enhancing interpersonal relations within our business/workplace, our family and community. This interactive workshop is designed for participants to explore, reflect and reposition their conflicts so that they can be viewed as valuable co-creative meeting points for mutual growth rather than obstacles in our way.
