We all encounter conflict in the workplace and, epecially in these remote times, things are bound to get lost in translation.

While conflicts are sometimes necessary, they’re not always healthy or productive.

At this Tweakshop, Valérie will walk us through some tools and strategies to help us prevent miscommunication and better understand what’s happening in moments of conflict. We’ll explore how to check our biases and make an informed decision about how to move forward.

Valerie Assoi is President and senior consultant at Acacia Mediation. A certified community mediator with an MA in Conflict Studies from St Paul’s University, Ottawa, Valérie supports businesses and organizations to leverage diversity and increase their sales and impact. She also works closely with families to help them manage interpersonal challenges.

What’s a Tweakshop & Hub Hang? We’ve combined a Hubber favourite, our weekly 15-minute Tweakshops, with a brand-new virtual program, the Hub Hang!

11:00-11:15 – Tweakshop: Learn from Hubbers about small tweaks and non-essential life skills that can help you lead a richer and more fulfilled life.

11:15-12:00 – Hub Hang: Stick around for informal conversation with fellow Hubbers & friends. Use this time to catch up, share your remote-working tips and tricks, and update us all on the books, podcasts and shows you can finally binge shame-free. Come and go as you please – no pressure to stick around for the entire hang!
