How do you engage across differences without the conversation breaking down? Join us for The Art of Civil Discourse on Friday, April 15, at 4 PM in Room 170 of the business school. Professor Chris Otten will lead a practical, interactive workshop on empathy, active listening, and critical thinking—tools you can use in classes, meetings, and everyday life.

The session will cover both tactical and principled approaches for managing conversations that can evoke highly charged opinions.
