OPEN DIALOGUE
The Power of Connecting across Differences
In Open Dialogue participants engage with the intention to:
Create meaningful connections
Deepen mutual understanding
Dialogue is different from debate, discussion or negotiation.
Dialogue has a vital, if quieter, role to play in a resilient society:
It can build human bridges across divisions.
In Open Dialogue you intentionally avoid monologues
and instead initiate two-way conversations.
In Open Dialogue you aim to overcome viewing others as opponents
and instead collectively practice to:
Share Personal Stories and validate emotions
Exchange Viewpoints and listen deeply
Open Dialogue is an effective way
to address the isolation, fear, and apathy of our times.
"In Dialogue, individuals gain Insights
that simply could not be achieved individually."
Peter Senge
