HOW TO HAVE EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION WITH SOMEONE YOU DISLIKE, DESPISE OR EVEN HATE!
In this video and podcast, Alan brings an understanding of effective communication, drawn from his experiences as a mediator and conflict coach, to discuss the common ways in which difficult discussions become unproductive and repetitive.

In contrast, having an understanding of how discussions can become productive and useful can mean we remain aware of the pitfalls of using personal labels within our own contribution to the communication. This includes difficult discussions at work, within our families, in our communities, in meetings and elsewhere.

When we can see how to take more control of our part in discussions with others whether face-to-face, by email and even on social media, we can optimise those discussions to serve a useful purpose in helping us to move forward in a challenging situation. This arises when we develop more mindfulness in our communication in order to respond in a way that helps us to learn from conflict, rather than remain 'at war'.

Alan's videos and podcasts are based on his observations when working with people involved in unresolved conflict during the last 26 years working as a mediator, conflict coach and conflict management consultant.
