Join us to learn practical skills that will help you to immediately start resolving impasses and find new solutions. Learn how to break through blocks and foster mutual trust, respect, and goodwill, through four basic steps you can practice in any situation with colleagues, supervisors, and clients—and even at home.
Past participants have commented that this program is “profound” and “…very useful for my relationships in the workplace,” offering “tremendous insight …and tools for separating out the many different things going on when two people try to communicate.”
