Contents of Webinar Series

Session One:  Experiencing Style Matters as a User.  Participants take the inventory as users in advance of the session and bring their printed score report to the session.  Dr. Kraybill will lead a "typical" conflict styles workshop so participants experience the inventory and followup training/coaching as a user.    Assignment for Session Two:  Have a conversation with someone about your own score report.

Session Two:  Basics of Conflict Styles Training.  Preparing for coaching and training, principles of training, working with core concepts of Style Matters.  Also, discussion of Assignment from Session One.   Assignment for Session Three:  Administer the inventory to someone and have a conversation with that person about their score report.

Session Three:  Interpreting Scores.  Principles of working with users and scores.  Also, discussion of assignment from Session Two.  Assignment for Session Four: Administer Style Matters to a second user and have a conversation with them about their score report.  

Session Four:  Culture and Conflict Styles.  The concept of High Context and Low Context cultures, how it operates in Style Matters, and how to use it as a trainer.  Discussion of experiences with assignment for this class.

Session Five: From One-Off Event to Conflict Transformation.  How to use Style Matters in ways that go beyond a single workshop experience to becoming a tool to facilitate on-going reflection and discussion, by individuals, teams, and organizations.

We do not certify trainers but we will provide a certificate of participation for anyone interested who attends all five sessions.

Cost is $199 for the package.

  

 

Optimize for learning

Train with tools designed by trainers and optimized for learning. Direct attention beyond numbers to core strengths, opportunities for growth, and strategic choices.

Prepare for diversity

Build conflict resolution skills in settings where managing differences is challenging. Use training tools with built-in cultural flexibility. Provide opportunities to discuss how diverse backgrounds shape habits in conflict.

Be practical

Ground learning in affirmation of existing strength. Give clear, simple feedback on areas of concern. Provide detailed suggestions for options to improve.

Be stress aware

Calm≠Storm. Recognize response to conflict as dynamic and not single state.  Give tools to manage the Storm Shift.

Be where they are

Provide multi-platform delivery of training. Support groups and teams scattered physically and working together online. Use time-saving web tools to facilitate learning for individuals, teams, or groups, in face-to-face workshops or online.

Work with limits

Price training materials in reach of all who need them. Reduce prep, coordination, and delivery time with trainer-friendly online tools. Deliver rich learning, on location or online, in less time, with less travel.

Take a long view

Expand the window of learning and support reflection before, during, and after workshops. Set up rich discussion in pairs, small groups, and large groups. Followup with resources for continued growth.  Facilitate journeys, not events.
