BOSTON - PrAtlas -- The Dock C. Bracy Center for Human Reconciliation today announces its first event of the 2025 Let's Talk Series. On Tuesday, April 8, 2025, 7-9 pm EDT (UTC-4), Bob Stains will present Let's Talk Series: Depolarize: Dialogue skills for transcending divides.
We are living in times of deep divisions in our communities, our country and even in our families. The chasms that separate us sometimes seem too wide and too deep to cross. These divides are often created and maintained by stories: thin caricatures of the evil "them" and virtuous "us" that are told and re-told, expanding polarization and making real connection seem impossible.
Yet there is hope. 30+ years of peoples' experience with Reflective Structured Dialogue across the US and countries around the world offers many ways for changing our conversations to expand stories and heal relationships.
This webinar will explore tools and techniques of dialogue (reflective skills, receptive skills, expressive skills) that we can use to reach across differences and come away conscious of our complexities and more connected as a result.
Bob Stains is the Founder of Bob Stains and Associates, Conflict Transformation. His highest purpose is to help people to get curious about and become more human to each other. Bob is also a Senior Associate at Essential Partners and has worked for decades across the US and in ten other countries facilitating dialogue and training others. He is a seasoned designer and facilitator of conversations that cultivate understanding and connection in fractured communities.
