One Size Doesn’t Fit All: Conflict Resolution

Speaker(s):
Lee-Anne Ragan

While conflict is universal, how we deal with it isn’t. This workshop takes a holistic view of culture (including ethnicity, socio-economic status, sexuality, ability, gender and more), to provide participants with a framework for how to build a culturally sensitive, collaborative conflict resolution process that can then be tailored to fit your individual communities and cultures.

Much of what we read about conflict states that there is one way to resolve all conflict. This cutting edge training takes an entirely different approach and demonstrates there are many ways to resolve the same conflict. Whether you are new to conflict resolution, want to improve your existing conflict resolution skills and/or are new to cross-cultural issues or want to improve your existing cross-cultural skills there is lots to learn for everyone. Great care is taken to facilitate a comfortable safe learning environment, with lots of room to practice and explore.
