The triggers fade into the background and the blame is placed on the other person. The conflict spirals upwards.

A clarifying conversation requires recognizing what has happened, what is disturbing and what needs to change in order to get the issue off the table. In this training , you will learn how to gain personal clarity in conflict-laden situations in order to communicate openly and resolve conflicts sustainably.
