Description

Even if you are personally convinced that working with feelings and conflict would be a constructive step for your group, that is unlikely to be a universally shared viewpoint, if you are trying to shift the culture in this fundamental way. In this class we’ll discuss what that resistance is likely to be based on, and what you can do to address it, so that you can take with you a clear strategy for introducing these concepts to your group.

Distilled from more than three decades of working as a professional facilitator and trainer for cooperative groups, your instructor, Laird Schaub, will cover what you need to know to move through conflict with as much grace as possible.

In this class you’ll learn about:

• the resistance to working with feelings and conflict in your group
• what you can do to address the resistance
• a clear strategy to introduce clear conflict concepts to your group

This class is suitable for people looking to start/build a community, and people already living in community. Need financial support?
