About this Event

Disagreement and conflict are normal parts of all human relationships. Whether at home, with friends, at school or work, or in society, wherever there are human beings there is disagreement and conflict. Some conflict is dangerous and needs to be prevented or managed, but most of our day-to-day conflict is just a natural part of differing individuals, groups, cultures, and belief systems coming into contact with one another. In these cases, the question is not how to stop disagreeing or manage conflict, but how to see disagreement and conflict as gifts and opportunities for transformation.


This workshop led by Dr Elizabeth Phillips will help participants identify how they reflexively engage with disagreement and conflict, as well as what strengths they possess for disagreeing well. Participants will learn skills for cultivating their best selves in situations of difference, disagreement, and conflict. Together we will explore how disagreement can be a gift and conflict can be an opportunity.
