ABOUT ABOUT

What’s this workshop about?
Conflict exists in all organizations whether between 2 people or within a group.  And whatever your role is in your organization, you can cultivate skills to handle it.  

Whether you drive it or avoid it, conflict is going to show up.  What do you do when conflict emerges?  How do you manage what you are feeling and thinking in those situations?  Self-awareness and self-management are cornerstones to leadership success.

What will you get out of this workshop?
In this workshop, we’ll explore conflict through the lenses of self-awareness and self-management in order to help you:

  • Identify your comfort zone with handling conflict and challenge you to try something else
  • Understand conflict and that it can be a healthy thing to engage with
  • Learn why it shows up in particular ways in  organizations trying to do so much good
  • Practice self-management tools for confronting and managing interpersonal conflict

Is this workshop for you?
Sounds relevant?  This workshop will be for you if:

  • You want to learn more about your emotional intelligence and how it can serve you better
  • You struggle to manage interpersonal conflict and want that to change
  • You are willing to practice using new tools in a group setting to become a better leader

How much does it cost?  
PACA is making this workshop available on a sliding scale basis.  We recognize that this kind of learning experience is often cost prohibitive for individuals, particularly  leaders of color, low-income/low-asset individuals, and those from grassroots and small organizations. 

PACA is beginning to offer this and other workshops as a part of its Cooperative Leadership Institute.  We are not fully funded to offer these workshops so if you can afford to pay at the high end of the scale, please do! 

For more information or to ask questions, please send an email to [email protected]. If you want to attend but can't pay, please contact us.  We have funding for a few reserved slots.
