This is the second event in a four-part series. Attend the other events in this series:
Deescalating Situations, September 28, 8:30-10am
Managing Conflict Step by Step, October 24, 11:30am-1pm
No-Fault Language is presented by Kris Donley, Executive Director, Dispute Resolution Center
Before we can assist anyone with their conflict with us, our service/product or our business in general, we must moderate the emotional temperature of the air between us. Learning how to de-escalate rising emotions, separating issues from the people who generate them and identifying and clarifying positions and interests utilizing neutral language techniques is the critical first step.
We’ll enjoy a pizza and salad buffet from Conans Pizza. AIBA events are open to members and prospective members.
