Canceled: Relearning Conversation
October 18, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
This event has been canceled!
Covid and the polarization that came in its wake laid bare our current cultural inability to engage in honest conversations about difficult topics. We have largely learned to accept government and the courts (and hence a top-down ordering) as our conflict resolution method.
This is an immeasurable loss for all of us. New knowledge and wisdom don’t grow by fiat. An open conversation allows new insights and surprising possibilities to emerge seemingly out of nowhere.
In this presentation, Elan Leibner will present a framework for re-learning the art of conversation. A Waldorf teacher of many years called this presentation ,”The most inspiring talk about social interactions I’ve heard in years.”
Elan Leibner has been a Waldorf educator for over 30 years and is the chair of the Pedagogical Section Council of North America. He left his house of many years and has been living with his wife and two dogs in an RV full time since 2021, traveling in search of natural beauty and in support of Waldorf education across the continent. https://elanleibner.com/
