Skills for Disagreeing Better (VT - State)

Braver Angels

Seeing where we differ and where we share common ground

Morrisville Town Hall Community Center

Note: This *FREE* event is to be attended in person. You will not need physical or virtual tickets in order to attend this event.In this polarized time, we lack basic understanding of why people on the other political side hold their beliefs. We don’t see them as they see themselves–their core values and central concerns–but instead as we choose to see them. We are tempted to regard our own side as principled and the other side as self-interested.When we try to communicate across this gap, we often lack the skills for listening carefully, looking for common ground, and sharing our perspectives in ways that connect rather than create more misunderstanding.We can learn to disagree better in polarized times, which means accurately seeing where we differ and where we share common ground.Goals<ul><li>More understanding of the values and concerns of people who differ from you politically</li><li>Better skills for listening in a way so that the other person feels heard</li><li>Better skills for sharing viewpoints in a way the other person might hear -- even if they disagree</li></ul>*Tickets are Free, Donations Help Donations beyond the free ticket support Braver Angels, 501(c)3.Questions?
