Dear Friends of Common Light,
We invite you to join us in a workshop March 24-25 on Resolving Conflict
with Self and Others in order to develop valuable peacemaking skills through
learning the international conflict resolution language developed by Marshall
Rosenberg. Ever since we encountered this nonviolent approach to communication
in a workshop with Marshall at Guilford college in the l970s, we have been
impressed with its practicality and applicability. Last year 250,000 people
around the world took this class, which is currently being taught in 22
countries. We hope you’ll join us to gain practical skills that have proved
useful to people of all ages and all walks of life. This will be a workshop
taking a “hands on” approach with lots of practice, so thatby the end of two
days, we will all have developed conscious skills and a strategy to deal with at
least two real-time conflicts.
We are very excited to be bringing Catherine Clements, a close friend and
nationally recognized consultant, counselor, and teacher to Black Mountainto
teach this two-day Intensive. Our friendship with Catherine dates from l968
when, as Cathy Lowdermilk, she entered Guilford college in the Richardson
Fellows Honors Program for Creative Leadership. A Licensed Professional
Counselor in the State of Colorado, she is a member of the American Counseling
Association for Multicultural Counseling and Development. Now based in Boulder,
CO, her expertise derives from 20 years of practical experience in
organizational development, administrative, accounting and human resources management,
counseling and mediation training, strategic planning, administrative policy,
and systems development in public and private organizations small and large..
To learn more about Catherine Clement, including some of the positions she
has held and clients she has served, go to Programs on _www.commonlight.org_
(http://www.commonlight.org/) . To learn more about Marshall Rosenberg’s

The workshop takes place at Common Light Meetingplace, in a wooded setting
