Deep Democracy Foundations (CoResolve): November 16-18, 2022
November 16, 2022 @ 8:00 am - November 18, 2022 @ 5:00 pm EST
$850 – $1350Deep Democracy, developed in post-apartheid South Africa, offers a robust methodology and tools for helping address tension and conflict practically and effectively. The hands-on, practice-based 2.5-day online course teaches techniques that can be applied immediately to work with groups and individuals.
The Lewis Method of Deep Democracy was developed by Myrna and Greg Lewis, psychologists who were asked to help a large South African company work through the legacy of apartheid. They developed the method, which they taught to over one thousand people in three years. Today, Myrna continues to teach, practice, and spread the Deep Democracy methodology around the globe. (Greg passed away several years ago.)
The Lewis Method of Deep Democracy welcomes differences in opinion, perspective, and style. It provides structured, focused methods for helping people hear the messages in the communication, regardless of the method of delivery, and explore differences in ways that are productive and respectful. Deep Democracy gives people tools that can help them facilitate tough conversations and achieve resolution.
