Restorative Practices: Using a Circle Practice for Building Community & Deepening Trust
Thursday, April 11, 2024 (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM) (EDT)
Description
A Restorative Practices Community Building Circle is a transformative tool that fosters trust, connection, and conflict reduction within work teams. By providing a safe and structured environment for open dialogue, participants are encouraged to share their thoughts, feelings, and perspectives. This process not only allows team members to truly listen to one another but also helps them better understand diverse viewpoints and experiences.
Through active participation, empathy-building, storytelling, and story listening, the circle enables team members to forge stronger bonds and develop a deeper sense of connection. Furthermore, by addressing underlying tensions and conflicts in a constructive manner, these circles facilitate conflict resolution and prevent issues from escalating, ultimately promoting a harmonious and cohesive work environment where trust thrives and collaboration flourishes. Come learn about and practice this valuable tool. All are welcome: students, staff, faculty, alumni and off-campus participants.
