The Hidden Architecture: Layers of Consciousness in Conflict & Communication
Details
Ever wonder why some conversations feel like you’re speaking two different languages, even when you're both using English?
Most conflict isn’t actually about the content—it’s about the Hidden Architecture of our minds. On February 21, we’re peeling back the layers of consciousness to discover how our internal "operating systems" dictate how we hear, react, and resolve (or escalate) tension.
By merging the tactical tools of Crucial Conversations with the developmental lens of Spiral Dynamics, we’ll learn to turn down the internal "noise" and see the world—and each other—from a higher vantage point.
What we'll cover:
- A Tactical Review: A speed run style refresher on the Crucial Conversations model to ground our discussion in practical skills.
- The Evolutionary Lens: An introduction to Spiral Dynamics and the "layers of consciousness" that drive human behavior.
- Connecting the Dots: We will explore how the skill of connection and the awareness of our internal state are inextricably linked.
Come prepared for an afternoon of shared learning, group discussion, and "Aha!" moments as we explore the invisible forces that shape our lives.
