Fierce Civility from Polarisation to Lasting Peace Friday, July 12, 2024

How do we best cope with our current volatile, disruptive and extremely polarised world situation? How can you adapt your approach when you meet others with a very different view to you? This week, I am delighted to welcome Joe Weston who brings over 30 years of experience in conflict prevention, leadership, stress management, and communication. In this conversation we will explore the principles outlined in his Amazon bestselling book, "Fierce Civility: Transforming our Global Culture from Polarisation to Lasting Peace." Including what is fierce civility and how can it help us to bridge divides and foster personal and professional peace and collaboration. As the founder and owner of Weston Network and the non-profit Fierce Civility Project, Joe has worked with a diverse array of clients, including NASA, the World Bank, Oxfam, Booz Allen Hamilton, PBS, The National Cancer Institute, The United Nations, and Mitsubishi Motors. His groundbreaking work and methodologies have made a significant impact on corporations, government agencies, and non-profits around the world. Joe's expertise is further highlighted by his experience as an adjunct professor at Georgetown University’s Department of Government, Program of Conflict Resolution, and his dedication to working with veterans and in-mates in the areas of integration, healing, and leadership. Join us for an enlightening and thought-provoking discussion that will elevate your understanding of the power of fierce civility and how you can use to increase your effectiveness whilst contributing to a more peaceful world.
