Format: Interactive group workshop
Location: Online or in-person
Duration: About 2 hours

Our differences in opinion, experience and approach can be a difficult source of tension in teams, and if ignored and overlooked people will feel demotivated, excluded and undervalued. At the same time conflict can also be important to help us grow and find the best solutions.

In this session, we’ll explore what unhealthy or healthy conflict looks like - and how your own experiences of conflict shape the way you engage when there is disagreement within a team. And how to ensure you’re building environments where everyone can work together towards shared goals.

By the end of this workshop you will be able to:

• Understand what has shaped your experiences of conflict
• Identify your teams relationship with conflict
• Use conversational frameworks and facilitation practices in both group and 1-2-1 settings to improve your team’s interactions with one another

What people say about this workshop

• This was possibly one of the best sessions I have attended… It was powerful and emotional but also challenging. I learnt a lot about myself and others that I can use to help me be braver and more confident in challenging behaviours or attitudes. It made me realise that I need to pause, consider and reflect rather than react.
