SUMMARY:Promoting Civil Discourse in Jewish Human Service Agencies Across Political Divides
DESCRIPTION:Cohort 1: Session 2 \nDesigned for CEOs\, executive leadership\, and HR professionals. Space is limited and first-come\, first-serve; we’re prioritizing professional leadership and HR staff\, with an initial limit of one participant per agency. \nWe have heard from countless member agencies that the ongoing societal tensions around both the current U.S. and Canadian political climates and the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East (plus related increase in antisemitic threats and physical violence) have crossed into day-to-day staff\, client\, and Board dynamics. \nThese challenges contribute to workplace and relationship tensions among the diverse staff working in Jewish human service agencies. Both Jewish and non-Jewish staff report discomfort and sometimes fear with colleagues’ views regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict (both the current and historical situation\, the hostage crisis\, the casualties on both sides\, and the broader conflict with Iran and its proxies) and the political realities in the U.S. and Canada. There are also tensions working with clients who hold and express opposing views from clinicians and other professional staff working with them. \nLed by Resetting the Table\, this initiative provides training for Jewish human service agency professional leadership on civil discourse\, conflict resolution\, and communication skill building for collaborative conversations about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and current U.S. and Canadian political discourse\, and also skills to reduce anxiety and manage feelings when interacting with a colleague or client with opposing views. There will also be an educational component presenting various viewpoints on the conflict. \nThe outcome would be Jewish human service agencies’ building a culture of productive dialogue among diverse staff. Staff will be able to maintain cordial and receptive relationships while being able to express opposing viewpoints without engendering anger\, fear and/or anxiety. These skills will translate into their work with clients with opposing values/viewpoints.
