Conference Panel: Bridging Differences with New Conversations

Essential Partners co-Executive Director Katie Hyten will lead a breakout sessions for Bridging Differences: A Virtual Summit for Dialogue and Understanding, hosted by the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley.

In this session, you’ll learn why it is so hard to disrupt old cycles and experience a taste of a conversation designed to bridge differences. You’ll walk away with a couple of tools to help you shift conversations in your context.

Since 1989, Essential Partners has helped communities and organizations bridge differences through conversations that build trust, understanding, and new paths forward together. EP's model invites a new conversation by disrupting old patterns of dysfunctional conversations and inviting reflection, curiosity, genuine questions, expansive listening, and speaking about what matters most.
