Following the success of the one day workshop "Exploring Conflict with Personality Dimensions ®", Mentedge Consulting is excited to once again partner with Conrad Grebel University College to offer this expanded two-day workshop exploring personality and temperament (using the tool Personality Dimensions ®) highlighting how an individual's natural inclinations can influence their approach to managing conflict.
These workshops are currently being offered online over four, half-day sessions.
Workshop Description
One of the greatest challenges when mediating conflicts is helping parties to focus on the underlying needs, values and beliefs that form the foundation of the positions they have taken. Focusing on these underlying core issues can be a key step in identifying common ground for moving forward.
Day 1 and Day 2 of the workshop provides tools to determine your own temperament, explore the core needs and values associated with your temperament, and an opportunity to engage with others to explore how different temperaments can contribute to interpersonal conflict. After the first weekend, individuals will be able to:
Identify their personal styles and how they (and others) respond to conflict
Appreciate the diverse ways individuals can experience and manage conflict
Examine barriers to conflict resolution
Learn to adapt to manage conflict in less than ideal situations
Recognize the different ways people act and react when experiencing conflict.
*Personality Dimensions® is based on leading-edge research into human motivation and behaviour and helps to explain what motivates behaviour in people with different personalities or temperaments. It is a Canadian program that provides an easily understood methodology for building self-awareness, self-esteem and effective communication strategies. Personality Dimensions® emphasizes the self-discovery process, and uses cards and group activities to engage the participant and reinforce learning.
