Continuing last year’s success, the WiFA Networking committee is pleased to announce the line-up for the 2021 Edition of The Art of Persuasion series of events focused on PERSUASION, the art of connecting with others through communication to lead to better understanding and positive change. It is often described as the ‘art’ of persuasion because it does not follow a formula, it must be practiced in the moment. Understanding more about this can not only help you learn to influence others, it can also help you to influence yourself to make the changes you want.

Details for Event 1

Speaker: Kern Beare

Title: Difficult Conversations: the Art and Science of Working Together

Overview:

Talking to people we disagree with can be fraught with fear and anxiety — triggering our fight or flight survival drive. We fight by arguing to win, or we flee by avoiding the person and the conflict altogether. But to heal a divide, we need to move beyond this ancient instinct and access our capacity for connection, creativity, and compassion. Join us to hear from Kern Beare, of The Difficult Conversations Project, about how we can do so.

Date: Tues 9 November 2021

Time: 12 noon HK time

Format: Zoom
