Leadership Spaces: Culture that Transforms Conflict

John guides and teaches a process for team and organization culture transformation through developing leadership to effectively navigate conflict. Transforming conflict transforms culture. Conflict and challenges are an opportunity to create deeper connection and collaboration and for new, creative possibilities and innovation to emerge.

The Approach is based in a form of empathic communication called Nonviolent Communication (NVC), an international body of work proven over decades around the world to be powerfully effective and transformational. John's Mediate Your Life approach integrates NVC, a mediation framework, levels of mindful awareness (dual and nondual), and trauma healing.

The Process is guided and facilitated to support people who are similar and different to share deeply and authentically about what matters most. It creates a leadership space for learning to experience understanding, connection, clarity, and new possibilities for action through talking about the larger challenges affecting and impacting them. Where conflict and emotional pain arises, the process supports healing, peace, collaboration, and emergent ideas for solutions.

The process is rooted in the Mediate Your Life 3Chair Model for relating to conflict from perspectives of I-You-We and dimensions of consciousness. The space builds community and connections, as well as practice skills for navigating and transforming conflict into new life-serving possibilities.
