CONFLICT WHOLENESS

“If another can easily anger you, it is because you are off-balance with yourself.”

Attending this Conflict Wholeness workshop in a small group will give you personal attention and empower you with the tools and understanding to:

• distinguish between negative and positive conflict
• be aware of your own conflict hooks, behaviours and negative patterns
• have the courage to face conflict
• resolve conflict in a constructive manner.

WHAT WILL A SESSION COVER?

During an interactive four-hour session we will cover:

• What is conflict and how does it manifest in your life
• Causes of conflict and impact of conflict loops or residual issues
• Personal contribution to conflict
• Role of language in conflict
• Personal conflict hooks and triggers
• Strategies and tools to resolve conflict
• Self-awareness and conflict

Attendees will have the opportunity to work as individuals, in pairs and in groups. They will complete a variety of activities and information to reinforce the learning and to refer to and use after the course.

Although the training is interactive and discussion is encouraged, no personal information is shared unless the participants agree to that and share freely.

OUTCOMES OF A SESSION

The intention of the workshop is to:

• give participants more insight and awareness to manage the conflict situations in their lives more effectively
• enable individuals to deal with conflict in a constructive manner
• encourage people to use concrete strategies to minimise conflict in their lives

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
