They will learn characteristics of the millennial student and will identify their organization’s values that mean the most to them, allowing them to use the values of the organization when advising their students.

Navigating Conflict, Communication through Values

Participants will learn active listening skills and the application of the I messaging technique for conflict resolution. They will work in groups to role-play case studies to help demonstrate how to apply the skills built during the workshop when handling difficult conversations.
