CCCI's conference builds communication skills across the interpersonal and intercultural, encouraging collaboration on the “value-added” rather than the “remedial” side. Attendees learn by doing, evaluating successes and failures while accelerating each other’s learning via interaction and practice.

2012 Conference

Based on experiential learning techniques developed at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and the NTL Institute, CCCI's residential conference is for professionals seeking to manage challenging, conflictual or emotionally charged situations by building skills to:

  • Explore gaps among impacts you want to have, believe you had & actually had
  • Practice being effective with 7 components of effective communication
  • Bridge differences by recognizing-- and exiting-- ineffective patterns
  • Practice reaching across differences using a comprehensive model
  • Coach yourself through emotional situations more flexibly
  • Practice managing difficult conversations and team dynamics choicefully
