Session Overview

Conflict shows up in many ways in public life. We know this from our own experiences in communities, with family, friends, and neighbors. Conflict is also amplified by all forms of media and within our institutions. When passions are high, it is a sign that something matters. How can we honor the passion yet hold onto safety and respect? Learning to respond in more productive ways takes practice – in person and online. Michele will facilitate the opportunity to practice sticking with a tough conversation.
