SUMMARY:Engaging Conflict in the Moment: Using Curiosity to Turn Conflict into Cooperation
DESCRIPTION:9:00 am – 4:00 pm\nvia webinar only \nPlease note: This course will not be added to Courses on Demand. Courses involving professional speakers and skills-based workshops generally do not get added to Courses on Demand. \nWho should attend: All legal professionals wishing to learn how to effectively clear up conflict TODAY! \nLearning level: All levels \nConflict is part of life.
