Conflict in Collaboration: From Getting Along to Getting things Accomplished

My colleague, Janet Salmons, Ph.d, is offering a free webinar.  Here's the information:

Webinar: Conflict in Collaboration: From Getting Along to Getting things Accomplished, on September 20 at 11 am EST, on Trainerspod. The webinar is free but registration is necessary. Register here: .
 

What kind of conflict is productive in collaborative efforts—and what kind of conflict obstructs progress toward collaborative outcomes? How can you tell the difference and what can you do about it? What issues are critical when the collaboration takes place in the virtual environment? These are some of the questions we’ll explore from both theoretical and practical perspectives in this webinar.

We will draw from our experience with collaborative efforts in and across disciplines including education and training, business and leadership, the arts, environmental science, government and the social sector. Lynn and Janet are editors of  the forthcoming book, A Handbook of Research on Electronic Collaboration and Organizational Synergy (http://www.vision2lead.com/html/esynergy.html)


The webinar will be interactive, using Elluminate’s shared whiteboard, chat area and voice over Internet. While you can use the text features without a microphone, we encourage you to use a simple headset or microphone with the computer’s speakers, so that you can participate in the live conversation. Trainerspod webinars normally run for about an hour and a half.

Come and join in the conversation!  Pass the word to anyone who might be interested in this live (and lively) discussion!
