SUMMARY:The Art of Asking Questions - Fall Semester Course  (Second Session)
DESCRIPTION:Through questions\, it is possible to discover\, in the thick of discord\, how to free ourselves from its all-consuming grip\, how to gain insight into what got us stuck\, transform the ways we interact with our opponents\, turn criticisms and complaints into openings for improvement\, and evolve to higher levels of skill in conflict resolution.  Through skillful questions we can begin to move into the heart of conflict and initiate open\, honest\, vulnerable conversations that allow people to work through their conflicts\, where resolution\, transformation and transcendence suddenly\, inexplicably\, exquisitely unfold.  All dispute resolvers – mediators\, negotiators\, facilitators\, coaches\, attorneys\, human resource practitioners\, psychologists and others can enhance their skills by asking deeper questions that reveal some new element or facet of the problem that transforms it and makes it resolvable; or that exposes its hidden dynamics and suggests new paths forward. \nClick here and scroll down to register

SUMMARY:[P]Reflections: Invaluable Benefits of Preparation - Second Fall Course (First Session)
DESCRIPTION:As a conflict resolution professional\, wherever you are in the world\, global experience demonstrates that at least 80% of the work in successful conflict resolution happens before participants even walk into their first meeting together.

This course delineates step-by-step how skillfully to prepare for dispute resolution environments through the use of interactive exercises. Global participants will learn how to assist multi-cultured parties to clarify their purpose\, to reflect on what is most important to them and\, how they can bring themselves constructively into the room. \nClick here and scroll down to register

SUMMARY:Intercultural Communications - Second Fall Course (First Session)
DESCRIPTION:Understanding intercultural communications enhances the ability to avoid language barriers and to work in conflict resolution across cultures\, an ability increasingly important in a shrinking world. Negotiators\, mediators\, litigators\, human resource managers\, social workers\, coaches and counselors\, among others\, can explore and expand their perceptions and practices by interactively processing how to adjust their own communication styles to the preferred styles of participants from other cultures. Global classmates\, in real-time\, will learn how communications are affected by cultural differences such as gender\, age\, class and race and\, how other variables of attitudes and behaviors impact conflict-resolution communications. The overall goal of this introductory course is to facilitate multi-cultured communications optimally through active\, experiential learning. \nClick here and scroll down to register
