WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
Join us for our TAVA AGM & Preventing Conflict through Strengths-based Conversations and Coaching Workshop with our guest speaker Kamryn Marsh (they/them)! Kamryn will guide us through the strategic benefits of using a strengths-based lens in our interactions with others and how this can reduce the frequency of conflict in our lives overall. We will reflect on the relationship between personal stress management and managing escalation in others. This session is highly interactive and aims to have practical takeaways for participants. You wont want to miss this workshop; and and especially because it's our last one before the TAVA summer break!
