An Essential Partners Dialogue Experience

People use the word “dialogue” to describe a variety of conversations and communication styles. At Essential Partners, we’ve developed a proven, highly adaptable approach called Reflective Structured Dialogue (RSD). RSD is designed to help people build relationships across differences to address their communities’ most pressing challenges.

It does this by empowering communities, schools, and institutions to create healthier communication dynamics, new or strengthened relationships, and an improved sense of belonging—even where there are highly polarized conflicts around differences of identities, values, and perspectives.

The power of RSD is best experienced, rather than explained. Curious to learn more? Join us for this three-hour introduction to RSD, which will center a full dialogue experience.

Objectives:

• To experience the power of EP’s Reflective Structured Dialogue approach;
• To understand some of the theory behind the practice;
• To reflect on the impact of the structures and facilitation approach; and
• To begin to imagine possible contexts in which RSD can support your purposes

Participants should come prepared to engage in a dialogue with other participants, facilitated by a skilled EP facilitator.
