Befriending Paradox

Unlock a deeper understanding of conflict resolution in this engaging session inspired by Adam Kahane's Facilitating Breakthrough and Bernie Mayer's The Conflict Paradox. As facilitators, we often face dilemmas when deciding whether to prioritize the group's needs (vertical) or focus on individual autonomy (horizontal). This session explores the contradictions that frequently arise in these situations, guiding us in embracing and navigating three key paradoxes:

  • Avoidance vs. Engagement
  • Emotion vs. Logic
  • Principle vs. Compromise

Move beyond binary thinking to explore the in-between spaces and learn to strategically shift between approaches.  This training will expand your facilitation skills, enabling you to support clients in understanding and managing these seemingly opposing forces.
