UPCOMING WORKSHOP: UNDERSTANDING CONFLICT

Want to better understand and learn how to navigate conflict when working with others? Join us for an intro to conflict workshop with Ground Floor!
In this session we'll explore the predictable patterns that drive conflict in collaborative environments, and look at the “why” behind tension: how it forms, escalates, and impacts creative work. We'll also apply these theories to real-world scenarios and include time for Q&A's.
