Why Courageous, Compassionate Communication Matters
April 24, 2025, 12:00 - 1:00 PST
One could argue that our country has never been more divided. From social media threads to neighborhood meetings to discussions over family dinners, ideological differences often create rifts through misunderstandings and unintended consequences. But what if we had the tools to engage differently with each other – our family members, neighbors, friends and even strangers - and have better outcomes? In this session, our facilitator will share personal stories and communication tools to help us lean into hard conversations and bridge divides, one conversation at a time.
This webinar will be facilitated by Dr. Rachelle Strawther, Founding Director, Center for Lifelong Learning, and Lauren Hackman-Brooks, Director, Office of Mission Engagement at Gonzaga. Hosted by Gonzaga University's Center for Lifelong Learning.
