Many conflicts don't require a facilitator at all, except to help an individual or group identify what is truly at the heart of their disagreement and assessing what others may need to help move things forward in a productive way. 1 on 1 conflict coaching is a great resource!

1-1 Coaching Conversations
1-1 Coaching Conversations
Each of us have trained with Advoz in their 1-1 Restorative Conflict Engagement for Trauma-Informed Leaders. This is a model and practice for engaging restoratively with someone in conflict. The process is designed to de-escalate the person in conflict, build an empathetic connection, help the person in conflict to discern their options, and make a plan to address the conflict/harm.
