Listening Across the Divide: Leading Real Conversations in Polarized Times
About this Event
Conflict and polarization have intensified across politics, communities, organizations, and society. People take sides, conversations become heated, and differences turn into division.
The result: Conversations that could build understanding and create progress are often shut down.
But what if a conversation could change everything? What if we could move beyond polarization and difference to create meaningful understanding, uncover common ground, and forge real progress?
Are you a leader working toward positive social change in your community, organization, business, or university?
Join us for the Listening Across the Divide workshop, an introductory session designed for people who lead change through conversation.
In this workshop, you will:
· Strengthen self-leadership in conflict
Develop greater personal awareness and a grounded leadership presence to navigate conflict and polarization with intention.
· Develop listening as a tool for change
Build practical skills in active, constructive listening to facilitate meaningful and transformative dialogue.
· Gain tools for leading conversations toward progress
Learn practical approaches for guiding difficult conversations toward greater understanding, shared possibilities, and solutions.
Your registration includes a continental breakfast, all materials, and lunch will be served.
