About this event
The Utah Women & Leadership Project invites you to join us for our Spring Workshop.
Is what you are doing in conflict working for you? Are you getting what you hope for? Are you able to cultivate connection, cooperation, trust, or peace? Clair and Carlee have spent the last five years gathering research, testing ideas, and training learners on what really works for managing conflict. From this work they have developed a framework that creates a new mindset and language for approaching conflict. This new mindset can transform how relationships, businesses, and communities prosper and thrive when there is resistance, discord, or clashing values. This framework has shifted how thousands of individuals view and engage in conflict. Join us for a workshop designed for women to learn specific skill sets, strategies, and processes that help find flow and peace in conflict.
Sponsors: Jon M. Huntsman School of Business and Extension at Utah State University & Utah Education Network (UEN)
