Featuring: Talk Story Session with Peter Adler, PhD – Future of Conflict Management in Hawaii
“In Hawaiʻi, as elsewhere, we have become metaphorically, a wheel or tire that has lots of interesting spokes branching out, but no real central intellectual or organizational hub. There are many smaller hubs in different organizations and institutions, but no one clear center that successfully connects all or even most. There is no common watering hole.
What is lacking is a vision and recognition of some kind of “common core” and the important, if not critical, need for broader expansion, study and capacity building in all fields of endeavor of conflict management, communication, priority setting, negotiation and community engagement skills at all points of the broader society.“
Peter will be leading the Talk Story session regarding this important topic at our annual gathering. Hope you can join in the conversation!
