COVID has brought dramatic changes in society. We are having to learn how to adapt to a new way of living and working.

This model was designed to help individuals and groups work better together. You can create a lifestyle or a work culture that holds these three behaviors as core elements that improve communication and reduce conflict.
Learning objectives:
Understand the difference between binary thinking and critical thinking and its impact on individuals and organizations.
