Preliminary TopicsThe workshop will feature a variety of compelling topics such as:
General Session with Ashley Virtue, National Conflict Resolution Center Handling Conflict through the ARTful Conversation Communication is a big part of our daily lives – in the workplace, in the community and at home. Yet we sometimes find ourselves unable to express what we intended or needed to say. Perhaps this is because we are reluctant to offend the other person, or we don’t want to escalate a situation. The National Conflict Resolution Center (NCRC) understands: The desire to avoid conflict is natural. That’s why they developed The ARTful Conversation, an interactive method that helps leaders communicate their needs in a way that builds relationships, rather than hurting them. This session uses real examples, developed with the participants in mind, to help you practice the ARTful Conversation structure in a practical way. You will gain a deeper understanding of how others perceive and process conflict and learn how to adapt your own style to work more effectively with others in all settings. By the end of this session, you will have new tools to: • Apply the principles of collaborative communication in interactions with others; • Utilize new communication skills that reduce tension; • Express your perspectives in non-confrontational ways; • Resolve differences, even when engaged in confrontational dialogue. Continuing Education credits (3.5 hours offered): Each of the breakout sessions are intended to be eligible for and are pending approval for SHRM and HRCI continuing education credit. | Hotel & Travel InformationThe 2024 HR Workshop will be held at The Garland Hotel 4222 Vineland Avenue North Hollywood, CA 91602 For details about this historic property and to book your room at the discounted rate of $229/night plus tax in the Cal-ISBOA room block click the buttons below.
