TRANSFORM CONFLICT INTO OPPORTUNITY

Conflict Facilitation training Intensive

19 - 23 SEPTEMBER 2025, PRAGUE

Conflicts cycle, issues entangle. Whether as an individual, in a relationship or an organisation, its natural that we get swept up and find ourselves caught inside the very problems that we set out to solve.

The Worldwork* methodology offers a unique approach to facilitating awareness at points of escalating and cycling tensions and conflict. This includes noticing the repeating patterns and behaviours that escalate inside ourselves, and inside of our relationships and in teams and organisations and in the collective And from here, being able to facilitate the discovery of emerging and creative possibilities and pathways forward.

We invite you to join us on this 5 day training journey where we will practice methods that can support us to familiarize ourselves with our inner lives and experiences which in turn can bring new perspectives on outer conflicts. We will learn cutting edge skills to facilitate the interactions of the whole system, rather than only staying reactive.

MORE SPECIFICALLY WE WILL EXPLORE:

Practical facilitation tools and techniques including soft skills
How to address power dynamics and hierarchies in relationships and teams
How our personal and collective histories impact on how we experience and act in the present
Identifying and working with both visible and invisible roles in the system
How to work on resolving escalated conflicts including working on the role of the one who doesn’t want to resolve the conflict
How to continually return to you as an individual and how you nurture your vitality as a facilitator

FORMAT We will have a chance to learn individually, inner reflections, in pairs, in small groups and in the large group.

The intensive is for anyone who works with people or is interested in developing in this area for example psychologists, coaches, counsellors, managers, HR professionals, teachers , social workers, mediators and those in the creative fields.
