Time: 9am-10:30am PST
*Cost: $60

Gracious Space has helped over 15,000 people in 30 states and 45 countries to work better together around critical issues. The Center has created and used Gracious Space in many sectors, including health care, business, government, community, nonprofit, and schools. It helps create the space, both literally and figuratively, to allow all people to bring their “best stuff” to conversations, relationships, and the workplace in a non-critical, open-minded environment. The principles of Gracious Space shape environments (within and outside of ourselves) that encourage integrity, honesty, trust, deep listening, and continuous learning. This session provides a framework for creating a setting conducive to honoring diverse and dissenting opinions, as well as learning in public.
