Featured CDPI - Understanding your Individual Conflict Dynamics Profile (all times eastern)	New June 4 session added! Have you felt uncomfortable in conflict? Feel like you want to lash out or avoid the situation altogether? Most people would say yes, and that is absolutely normal. Did you know that not all conflicts lead to destructive outcomes? Instead, many conflicts—when managed well—can lead you and others to growth, innovation, and improvement. This 90-minute workshop is designed to enhance your personal ability to navigate conflict. You will learn about both helpful and unhelpful behaviors in conflict as well specific “hot buttons” that tend to draw out unhelpful behaviors. This online interactive session provides both in-depth information as well as an interactive debriefing of your CDP survey results. Registration Closes one week before the workshop date. *Starting two weeks before the workshop, registrants* will receive an email invitation to take the Conflict Dynamics Profile (CDP) survey for free . Complete this 20-25 minute online survey no later than the Sunday BEFORE the workshop.** (You will receive your digital survey profile report & a Zoom link the morning of the session).

Featured Crucial Conversations for Mastering Dialogue - May 2024	For next session, ALL virtual workshop activities take place from May 3 - May 31, with pre-work mailed on May 3 >> Synchronous meetings (Zoom) are scheduled from 11am -12:30 pm eastern on May 10, 17,2 4, & 31, 2024. >> Registration deadline April 22, 2024. CLICK HERE to REGISTER (not with the reg button) A Crucial Conversation is a discussion between two or more people where the stakes are high, opinions vary, and emotions run strong. When conversations turn crucial, people tend to follow one of two ineffective paths: they either speak directly and abrasively to get the results they want but harm relationships, or they remain silent with the hope of preserving relationships only to sacrifice results. This 12 hour virtual hybrid training builds skills for constructively engaging in conflict —rather than stepping over or around it— turning disagreement into dialogue. Held over 5 weeks, this training consists of 5-6 hours of asynchronous online learning from Crucial Learning paired with Ombuds-facilitated discussion and application activities over four 90-minute Zoom meetings (1 per week) for 12 total PD hours. More about CCMD training content. Materials Cost: $318 online materials access fee per person. Consult with your unit/department/college for funding – this is typically paid via internal transfer through Campus Shared Services.
