- Increase self-awareness and recognize predictable patterns of drama in yourself and others
- Learn about the skills of Openness, Resourcefulness and Persistence and the Compassion Cycle
- Develop your Action Plan to lead yourself and others into compassionate accountability
Assessment and Workbook
The Drama Resilience Assessment (DRA) is your personal centerpiece of the Conflict and You Workshop. The Drama Resilience Assessment (DRA) is a confidential diagnostic tool to help you lead out of drama. Participants also get the “Conflict and You” guide with the results – to print and use during the workshop. This online tool is designed to help you assess how you approach conflict. Key indexes reveal aspects of your negative conflict risks and your positive conflict potentials.
Pre-Work
- Please complete your DRA survey timely. An email notice will be sent with the survey link and open survey times.
- A subsequent MyNE notice will let you know when you can print your results.
- You may bring one or more of your own conflict or change situations to use in the session.
