Is there a Huffalump in the room? Realities of EHDI Programs Part II
Brought back by popular demand – Conflict Resolution. As we learned last year, the Chinese word for conflict or crisis consists of two symbols - Danger and Opportunity. When we are faced with difficult moments, we must remember we have a choice. Understanding the dangers will allow us to explore our opportunities when we make our choice in how to manage the conflict. This presentation will provide some tools that you can use to get to the “root cause” of the problem. A panel of EHDI stakeholders will share some of their conflicts and how they used these tools to understand their problem(s) and work toward a solution. Join us and explore realities that we face in today’s EHDI program. While we will not have the answers to all conflicts we know that there is an opportunity for growth and sharing.
- 1. Identify key ideas in conflict resolution
- 2. Identify tools that can be used in “root cause” analysis and understanding the problem
- 3. Share real stories in dealing with conflict
