Overview: Consultation and participatory processes required by best practices, as well as laws and regulations, are often challenging and stressful. When cultural and natural resources and issues of identity and heritage are involved, passions can flare. Different perspectives, interests, and personalities can feed into frustrating interactions. Learn or brush up on conflict management, consultation, and negotiation skills through interactive exercises based on real situations involving cultural and natural resources. Gain insight into your personal conflict management styles and consider how to work better with others’ styles.

Participants will receive logistics information by email on how to access the webinar using the Zoom meeting format at least a week prior to the training.
