"Extraordinary workshops have what I call an X-factor. I don't know what it is, but I recognize it when I see it. Your workshop had the X-factor!"

• leadership development
• team development
• communication and conflict resolution skills building.

In this highly interactive workshop you gain highly practical and actionable insights and tools that help you expand your capacity to work effectively with all kinds of conflict and regenerate collaboration. You gain a deeper and more differentiated awareness of conflict dynamics that you experience in interaction with others. You explore ways of transforming those dynamics to mine their creative and collaborative potential. Operating from the premise that life--whether in business or otherwise--and all conflict resolution is an improvisation, you will develop a keener awareness of inner and outer resources that can help you create what you want and need. Deviating from the customary learning mode, you will translate what you first experience in your body back into mental models and distinctions.

 

Beata Lewis, together with her German colleague Ulla Glaesser, developed this original approach to utilize and integrate practices for improvisation and body awareness to support greater effectiveness and ease in conflict resolution and collaboration. Workshop participants have been from such diverse professional areas as law, alternative dispute resolution, organizational development, coaching, counseling & therapy, dance & body work, education, and corporate management. Workshops applying this approach are now offered and continuously augmented and refined by a network of professional who combine expertise in law, conflict resolution, movement and healing. To date, emBODY-INg CONFLICT TRANSFORMATION has been presented in the United States, Canada, and Europe.
