Anger and Conflict Workshop

The workshop on understanding and dealing with anger is first rate. The workshop is geared for grade 7 thru adult. It explains the major mistakes in getting angry. Jim gives a survey and uses real life situations to help you understand anger and how to use it appropriately. He ties this into dealing with conflict. “It is not whether conflict is good or bad, but how you deal with it.”

The workshops are 30 minutes to an hour long and easily fit into a workday or lunch seminar.
