Bundle: Better Faculty Meetings

Format: Asynchronous/Video
Time: 3-4hrs on your own
*2-Course Bundle*

Faculty meetings are where a department's culture can really show itself, for better or worse. When tensions run high, strong opinios, personalities, and recurring arguments can take over, leaving no room for progress or constructive outcomes.  With the right skills and strategies, faculty meetings can become a place where differences generate insight and shared purpose.

In the Better Faculty Meetings bundle, Diana Kardia draws on research on academia, group dynamics, and conflict to give faculty and staff a practical roadmap: strategies for keeping meetings on track and tools for engaging conflict constructively.

This bundle includes two asynchronous courses.

 

De-Escalating Faculty Meetings explores how faculty meetings can either strengthen departmental collaboration or become sources of conflict and division when tensions run high. In a 30-minute video, Diana Kardia shares practical strategies for keeping meetings productive, preventing unhelpful escalations, and encouraging meaningful participation from a wide range of perspectives.
Navigating Conflict in Discussions reframes conflict as a fertile source of insight in group discussion and deliberation rather than something to avoid. This asynchronous course offers concrete strategies for approaching conflict through "slow thought" situational analysis, applied self-awareness, and conscious response, improving your contributions to meetings, teams, and committee work.
