Priya Parker's book, "The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why it Matters," articulated exceptionally profound insights and practices that help people and teams deeply reexamine how they meet and gather. In this session, we will explore the connections between Priya's ideas and the Four-Fold Way (Angeles Arrien). Participants will learn how to move from no- and low-purpose meetings to creating gatherings with transformative power and then facilitate this method with others. Presented by Dr. Aaron Tabacco, PhD, Director of Staff Experience and Executive Coach at UCSF and in his private practice, The Lucus Group, who created and uses this methodology in his work.

Strong teams are the heart of great organizations, yet many teams struggle to reach their potential due to team dynamics, ineffective leadership, lack of purpose, or many other factors. This is where a coach can be indispensable and help a team go from average to outstanding! This session will focus on how to apply organizational development and psychology frameworks to different situations (e.g. new team, dysfunctional team, pivoting team) so that a coach can assess and support the development of a team. We will also compare and contrast the philosophies of coaching individuals and coaching teams.

A critical difficulty we face in our organizations is that communication misunderstandings, conflicts, and problems across cultures are often grounded in very different approaches people take for resolving difficulties with one another. The ability to recognize and effectively respond to cultural differences in communication and conflict styles is critically important. As coaches, it is important that we have an increased self-awareness and we support coachees with their self-awareness to increase workplace inclusion. Join award-winning DEI practitioner and arts educator, Dr. Melissa Crum, in an interactive workshop using theater-based practices that will help you increase your cultural self-understanding of your own communication and conflict resolution approach, increase your understanding of diverse approaches others use to communicate ideas and resolve conflict, and learn culturally responsive strategies to communicate your goals and interests to others.
