This two-day workshop is for people who work with others in conflict and who have already completed a 30 Hour Facilitative Mediation trainings. Conflict coaching is one-on-one process during which a trained conflict coach works with a person in conflict using conflict resolution skills and strategies to support the coachee’s ability to engage in, manage, or productively resolve the conflict. Conflict coaching can be used as a stand-alone process or as a step before or during mediation. A conflict coach is a confidential listener who helps the coachee see the conflict from all perspectives, consider options, and come up with a plan of action. In conflict coaching, the coachee, not the conflict coach, is responsible for the outcome. Conflict coaching can be useful for conflicts in the workplace, divorce and post-decree situations as well as community disputes.
The following topics will be covered: ·
- Understanding what conflict coaching is and is not;
- Understanding conflict- sources, types, physiology;
- Gaining new skills to help others transform conflict;
- Understanding and conducting the stages of conflict coaching;
- Understanding and appreciating the role of emotion;
- Gaining hands on skills in teaching “I” messages, conflict mapping, role playing, listening, perspective swapping and other skills;
- Practicing conflict coaching through role plays and exercises.
