This highly interactive and participatory workshop is an invitation to intentionally experiment with and apply your creativity to reflect on your conflict practice. Over time we may become creatures of habit, even sleep walking through our work. In doing so we miss opportunities for spontaneity, happenstance, possibility, and change. As a result innovation for our conflict practice slips by. How can we disrupt ourselves to provide different perspectives and new insights for how we go about our work and in the process tap into our most sustainable and renewable resource – creativity.
In the workshop:
Cathryn will guide you through a series of creative activities including images, artefacts, stories and an A to Z of prompts from her book Seriously Playful Creativity: An A to Z of Creative Action and Reflection to:
Spark creative reflection and action for your practice;
Apply your creativity to reflect on a conflict situation important to you;
Hydrate your creativity for conflict practice (whether coaching or mediation);
Gain a sense of when you are at your best in your practice.
