Training Overview:

Conflict is part of working together. Unresolved conflict undermines productivity, creates confusion and ill will and can lead to increased stress with physical and emotional consequences. Conflict Resolution is an opportunity to not only reduce these negative impacts, but also to cultivate a safe, civil workplace which allows a more creative, fully expressive, resilient and productive team. Each time we successfully resolve a conflict together, we improve the conditions for Civility.

In this two-day course we will explore a model for conflict resolution that relies on Positive Assertiveness, Emotional Intelligence and Facilitation.
