This interactive, instructive, and very useful workshop will introduce participants to a variety of communication skills and mediation tools as means to resolve conflict and engage others in more valuable discussions.

The “Five Steps to Resolving Conflict” workshop focuses on how to engage others in productive conversations, and offers communication and mediation skills as a means of resolving conflict.
