Explore the Five Core Practices of Compassionate Listening and learn the skills necessary to bring this powerful technique into your daily life.
Compassionate Listening is a practice that reaches deep into the heart of discord or disconnection, teaching people to listen with a different "ear" to those around them. Its powerful tools help transform the energy of conflict into opportunities for understanding, intimacy at home, healthy relations, productive teamwork, and positive action. It is a practice that provides a roadmap to what sages from all ages and cultures have taught: cultivating the wisdom of the heart is the key to real peace "from the inside out."Susan Partnow is co-founder of Conversation Cafes, Let’s Talk America and Global Citizen Journey. She is a former teacher and speech pathologist, author of Everyday Speaking for All Occasions, certified mediator and an organizational development consultant/trainer for over 20 years, with an M.A. from Northwestern University.

Add to my calendarThe Compassionate Listening Project, located in Indianola, WA, grew out of the work of Gene Knudsen Hoffman, a Quaker and international peacemaker. Our formal training program, in existence for approximately ten years, is aimed at deepening people's ability to listen with an open heart in difficult situations and learning to humanize those we consider "other". We are grateful to the many people we have learned from over the years who have helped make Compassionate Listening the profound practice it is today. Facilitators for this workshop are Andrea Cohen and Susan Partnow, both certified Compassionate Listening facilitators who have been with The Compassionate Listenng Project since its inception. They are trainers for the residential Advanced Training Series and also serve as mentors to those seeking to further their skills.
