"Facing a conflict requires a strong heart. The challenge for many of us in conflict is to put the relationship before the disputed issues and slow down long enough to recover our faculties - especially the ability to see and hear clearly. The eyes and the ears are always the first to go in conflicted dynamics." – Patrick O'Neill

Resolving a conflict at home, work or the community is a good thing. But sometimes resolutions don't hold and the participants find themselves in conflict all over again.

Conflict transformation is an approach that seeks to build a stronger relationship as a result of a conflict rather than just repair or rectify the damage done.

Patrick O'Neill will lead a two-day program on Conflict Transformation exploring six sets of practices that illuminate conflict dynamics, interrupt reactive behaviors, generate mutual gain, and deepen the relationships of the conflicted parties.

A Journey to the Heart of Creativity and Personal Leadership. A Four-Week Seminar with Angeles Arrien & Patrick O'Neill

In a four-weekend format, Angeles Arrien and Patrick O'Neill will address the universal principles that support the alignment of the mind, heart, creative fire and character behind our life dream or collective dream. Each weekend of the series will focus on a different domain of creativity and explore the four quadrants of life's experience: relationships, work, health, and personal and professional resources.

Triumph of the Imagination provides a powerful framework to identify your life dream (Imagination), access practical tools for manifestation (Wisdom), leave with an action plan (Manifestation), and clearly identify the resources, gifts and talents that support success (Recreation).

The Five Transitions is the program that many of you have been requesting: how to navigate life’s transitions.

Through the Five Transitions you will learn:

• How to meet change like a Warrior not a Wimp
• What requires change or strengthening in your thinking, actions, and behaviors
• The gifts and talents you currently possess that will help you
• The character qualities that provide stability during transition
• The values and principles that must be honored in the process of making choices
• How to identify your most important priorities
• How to choose wisely and well
• How to manage the self-critic, intent on impeding your progress to keep you “safe”
• And an action plan to ensure your passage through change is strong and graceful, not painful.

Participants come to:

• Embrace life’s unexpected transitions
• Confront where they are letting themselves down
• Address the fears that limit their aspirations
• Develop a fresh perspective on what is most important in their own lives
• Strengthen their inner voice – this is the place to bring it forward
