OUR VISION:
The Next Step in Human Evolution
We are aiming for a relational culture in which relationship is the primary value, equality is universal, difference is celebrated, and all conversations are safe and collaborative.
“Recently, I was in a meeting at work where a lot of complaining was going on. The moment felt right, so I jumped in: “I’ve learned that underneath every complaint is a need that isn’t being met. Can we rephrase our complaints into needs?” Everyone was looking at me like “Wow, what a concept.” One person, and then another, went for it. Safe Conversations really changed the tone of the meeting.”
Dalia“If you are thinking about becoming a SC leader I would say go all in. Come as soon as you can. You never know when the opportunity will arise to present a workshop or to provide intervention. It can also be a lucrative career if you’re thinking about that as well.”
Morgan Wagonner“This entire process has changed the way I approach not just my wife but how I approach others. I have been using these tools for about four months. It is life-changing. It is the only thing I have ever done that has helped me express myself.”
Dan“It reemphasizes something I already knew: that you can have a conversation, even about hard things, without being confrontational. It’s about growing into maturity, learning and practicing, so you can apply it down the line.”
Derek“Attending the Safe Conversations workshop is like cleaning the windows for the first time. You may think your view is great. In reality, you have no idea how much better it can be! Whether family, coworkers, patients, complete strangers, or even my five-year-old son, the Safe Conversations tools make a world of difference.”
