Conflict Resolution with Power and Privilege in Mind
Jan 12, 2027 • 12:30 pm – 3:30 pm
Adaptive Leadership, Communications, Equity & Inclusion • Virtual Event
Offered by Compass Point, this 2-part workshop will explore what drives our reactions, how our approach to conflict relates to power and privilege, and how to shift power dynamics by employing communication skills like listening, inquiry, and empathy.
Interpersonal conflict isn’t a matter of “if”, it’s a matter of “when”. Most of us avoid conflict, forgetting that on the other side of tension we can often find transformation.
When we get into conflict with each other (at our organizations or in movement spaces), we often do so without taking time and space beforehand to slow down and explore our own relationship to conflict—namely, what drives our reactions and how our approach to conflict relates to power and privilege.
In this online workshop, you will:
- Learn five Conflict Resolution styles and how they intersect with positional power and social privilege
- Identify how you want to be your “best self” in conflict
- Build on your abilities of listening, inquiry, and empathy as skills for working through conflict
