Speaker:
Effective communication is key when tackling complex issues, especially when people do not share similar perspectives or experiences. This session focuses on the exploration of one dialogue model for effectively engaging with people or groups who hold opposing views about critical topics. Participants will practice components of this dialogue model in order to advance skills in complex dialogue situations. This model focuses on dialogue distinct from debate and/or consensus building. However, participants should leave with an understanding of how effective dialogue contributes to community building.
Facilitated by: Leigh-Anne Royster, Ph.D., Associate Vice President for Strategy and Education Development & Elizabeth Jones, Ph.D., Director for Education and Outreach
