Communication Basics: Online

The Haven’s Communication Model offers a doorway into communicating and connecting when it really matters. As we navigate these uncertain times—at home, in our work, and in our communities—tension and anxiety may be front and center for us or nibbling at our edges.

The Haven’s Communication Model offers an accessible map and set of tools to improve your communication skills – a path to recover your curiosity and generosity of spirit, bring increased clarity to your relationships, and support finding your way out of misunderstandings.

This 3-hour interactive online program,“Communication Basics – connecting in tough times”, is a great introduction to working with the Model. It’s also a good refresher for those who’ve learned the Communication Model in other Haven programs and want to apply it to what you are facing today.

You’ll be invited to connect with others, practice your skills in pairs and trios, and consider how you want to take what you learn back into your lives. If you’re attending this workshop with someone else, you’ll be invited to let us know during registration – there may be opportunities to practice or dialogue with specific people.

This program is especially for you if you want to…

• share more clearly what is really up for you in these challenging times,
• communicate more directly and improve your relationships with friends, family, loved ones, or work colleagues,
• discover ways to stay more present in difficult conversations, conflict and other challenging situations,
• expand your self-awareness, think more clearly and communicate with more empathy and clarity, and
• slow down, get curious and be a better listener.

Program Highlights:

• Experiential learning with experienced leaders and online technical support;
• Limited group size of 24 participants;
• A mid-program break for reflection and integration;
• Opportunities to connect with others and practice skills in pairs or trios; and
• Time to identify how you want to take what you’ve learned back into your life.
