What’s exciting to you about this course?
But why?
There are a variety of reasons, but primarily it's because so many of us don't know how to effectively work through our differences.For example, you know you need input from others, but you may not know how to hear as well as you'd like while holding onto what's deeply important to you. You may even yearn to be truthful with someone at work – yet not know quite how to do so…
And our societies and workplaces make no attempt to change that. In fact – and especially at work – disagreements and conflicts tend to be perceived as problems, plain old bad luck, or downright failures.
However, the truth of the matter is this: most of us simply lack the skills, knowledge, and training. If you are like most of us, you will need support to re-learn how to transform differences that would enable you to move away from "stuck" and into outcomes that benefit everyone.
During this course, you'll focus on learning about and acquiring the skills and practices you need. You'll learn how to engage effectively with conflict and differences, and set yourself up to continue improving your ability to collaborate in ways that work for all.
