VIRTUAL | Yes, And: The Art of Collaborative Communication | Curiosity & Creativity

This 3-part interactive workshop explores how intentional communication strengthens relationships, builds trust, and fosters meaningful impact—at work, in community, and everywhere in between. Through experiential exercises, reflection, and discussion, participants will develop practical communication skills rooted in listening, presence, and curiosity, building confidence to communicate with empathy, influence, and creativity.

Each session you’ll walk away:

Aware: A clearer understanding of how listening, presence, and curiosity shape communication, and where habits and assumptions get in the way.
Engaged: Experiential exercises in breakout rooms, followed by guided group debriefs that deepen insight and shared learning.
Grounded: Practical, human-centered tools you can use immediately to communicate with empathy, confidence, and intention at work, in life, and everywhere in between.

Session 3: Curiosity & Creativity
Curiosity transforms communication from transactional to collaborative. Open possibilities by using curiosity and creativity to invite new perspectives and shared solutions.

Key Takeaways:

Ask better questions to expand understanding
Navigate uncertainty with greater ease
Apply creative approaches to collaboration and connection
