The Power of Dialogue | A CURRENT Workshop

What: The Power of Dialogue | A CURRENT Workshop
When: April 19, 2018 at 12:00pm to 1:15pm
Where: The Current Agency, 3707 Apalachee Parkway Tallahassee, FL 32311
The Power of Dialogue is a comprehensive “deep dive” into transforming conflicted conversations about divisive issues. Even within the most contentious issues or fraught situations, the right tools enable a community to foster understanding, restore relationships, and move forward.
In this workshop, we will:
*Recognize the signs of polarization and dynamics of conflict, including the effects of strong emotion on how we perceive and communicate with others.
*Practice ways of speaking, listening, and asking questions that foster sincere curiosity about an opponent and open up conversations.
*Understand the gap between a speaker’s intention and impact in communicating with others.
*Experience all elements of a structured dialogue about a divisive issue: preparing participants, planning, facilitating, and participating.
