Sunday Closing Plenary - Communication FLOW: Bringing Authenticity and Presence to Practice

Internal Martial Arts Instructor Harmony Wagner and Collaborative Lawyer-Mediator Jacinta Gallant combine forces for an experiential Sunday Plenary that will help move you into FLOW – by fostering curiosity and enhancing the presence we bring to our work and our lives.
Drawing from Jacinta’s Authentic Professional Series, and Harmony’s Communication FLOW techniques, we will come together using gentle Tai Chi exercises to experience the challenges we face in staying open, authentic and truly present in the midst of conflict. We will analyze 
our “stance” and how it interplays with others, and will discover ways to hold our stance – with presence and integrity – in challenging situations.
During this plenary, our last gathering at the 2018 IACP Forum, we will move together to weave  the threads of collaborative creativity into our professional community, so that we can truly embody authenticity in our work, and achieve more FLOW in our relationships. 
Movements will be gentle and people will be given the option to remain seated/just watch.
Harmony Wagner, R. Ac. is a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine and a certified instructor of Internal Martial Arts with the North American Tang Shou Tao Association. She has taught both martial arts and traditional medicine systems around the world. Harmony developed FLOW as a communication workshop that utilizes experiential learning and Tai Chi principles to examine the “stance” we bring into the world and how that impedes or progresses our capacity to dialogue, move our agenda forward and dissolve conflict.
Jacinta Gallant, B.A., J.D., an internationally-recognized conflict trainer, developed the Authentic Professional Series to help people bring more integration into their personal and professional lives. As a conflict trainer working with approaches to curiosity and presence, Jacinta was immediately drawn to (and curious about) Harmony’s FLOW concepts.
As luck would have it, Harmony and Jacinta both live on Prince Edward Island, on the east coast of Canada, which has allowed them to become good friends and collaborators, and has led to their many conversations about work, life, authenticity and FLOW that will be the focus of our Sunday Plenary.
