Less often do we consider the positive side of risk associated with new venture or changes in behaviours.  This session is an exploration of both the positive and negative aspects of risk, and how different factors affect our levels of risk tolerance and influence  the decisions we make.  Participants will be challenged to think of risk as a driver towards success. The session is not designed to necessarily encourage participants to take more risks, but rather to make their relationship to risk more conscious and intentional. A series of short experiential exercises and video clips animate key points of this session. Combining this presentation with a high ropes course challenge or rock climbing session  is an effective way of linking theory with hands-on exercises involving real and perceived risk. Dealing with Difficult People All of us have someone “difficult” with whom we interact with at work, at school, or in our personal lives. This session will help participants gain a better appreciation of the causes of, and solutions to, difficult interactions and relationships. Using a conflict styles inventory to recognize and better understand different preferences for dealing with conflict, participants will be given strategies to work towards conflict resolution.  Along with a better understanding of people’s motivations for their behaviours, participants will also learn more about what behaviours and types are triggers for them and recognize they also play a role- positive or negative- in every relationship they have.  Role play, small group discussions and hands-on activities keep this full day session engaging and grounded in practical application.
