Case Study #2
This is from one of my favorite clients, The Guild, located in Atlanta. The Guild is a worker-owned cooperative building community-owned models of land, housing, and real estate.

Their work centers people and planet, not profit.
We've been working with The Guild for 2 years, and they just signed on for another year!

In the coming days we will be sharing case studies from our work with diverse clients from around the world so that our followers can understand our work a little better.

Case Study #1 is from the time my teammate Tomis and I traveled to the Netherlands to work with a team at a well-known global athletic shoe and apparel company.

This was a really fun and rewarding experience. It was my first time traveling to Europe and the team we worked with made tremendous strides by working with us.

Our best clients have come from direct referrals from people we know and maybe the next one will come from you!

Ah, Thanksgiving, where the turkey isn't the only thing that's roasted. 🍂

Check out the article link below to help you use Authentic Dialogue to de-escalate those family debates and turn them into a feast of understanding! 😅

Step 1: The Diplomatic Entry

Before diving into the mashed potatoes, master the art of de-escalation. Approach heated debates like a diplomatic ninja, proposing a truce with, "Let's not debate; can we agree to hear each other out and find a win-win solution?" 🤝

Step 2: Modeling Marvels

As the designated peacemaker, take center stage to model Authentic Dialogue. Let Uncle Joe spill his controversial gravy first, listen without interruption, and pepper in empathetic questions. It's a family roast, but with a side of understanding. 🎤

Step 3: The Solutions

Now comes the grand feast of solutions! Suggest compromises that cater to everyone's cravings. If your peace treaty isn't unanimous, tweak it until it's a dish everyone can savor. 🍠

Step 4: Practice

Like perfecting Grandma's secret recipes, Authentic Dialogue is a skill that deserves practice. Turn those potential family clashes into opportunities for growth and understanding. Remember, the more you practice, the more confidently you can navigate those Thanksgiving tension landmines. 🥧

This Thanksgiving, let Authentic Dialogue be your secret weapon. Transform potential family conflicts into sitcom-worthy moments of growth, understanding, and perhaps an extra slice of sweet potato pie. 🥧🍁

May your mashed potatoes be lump-free, your cranberry sauce be free of arguments, and your family gatherings be filled with love and laughter! ❤️

Authentic dialogue is a communication technique that allows each person to feel heard, appreciated, and valued, even when there is a disagreement. In this blog, we will explore how to use authentic dialogue to resolve conflict, specifically when the other person hasn’t learned the skill. Click her...
