Workshop 2: Paul Patchel Conversation Series
April 6 @ 9:30 am – 12:00 pm
Paul Patchel Conversation Series 2024
Struggling in conversations or relationships with others of differing viewpoints? Join our three workshops designed to help you engage in constructive dialogues with individuals of diverse backgrounds and viewpoints.
Workshop 2: Approaching Uncomfortable Topics to Grow Relationships
The second preparatory workshop will focus on how to have conversations about uncomfortable topics and situations. When people are willing to share their stories we need to be able to make the most of the opportunity and do it in a way that preserves or builds relationships.
Some of the questions we will explore are:
- How do we ask people to talk about painful or embarrassing experiences?
- How do we treat people with respect when they stand for everything we disagree with?
- How do we decide how open we need to be about our lives? What should we reveal? What chances should we take?
- How do we disagree and maintain friendships and relationships?
We encourage you to sign up for any or all workshops as part of the Paul Patchel Conversation Series 2024. Space is limited to 30 attendees. Learn more and register here:
