Program reviews
What are others saying?
"This course is a wonderful journey of learning, not only about oneself and how the mind works, but how to have a better sense of others in the context of creating longer term successful relationships. It applies to all aspects of life and includes concepts that will have a very positive impact on those who approach situations with an open mind and heart.
I highly recommend it."
"As a former Senior Manager within the Public Service, I have had the opportunity to participate in a number of training/education sessions that helped me to better understand myself including my beliefs, values and decision making style, and how that can affect my relationships with others. I also took courses on alternative dispute resolution, organization culture, change management and more. Reading through Self and Others caused me to stop and reflect on various people situations that I faced over my years - how I handled the situation then and more importantly, how I might have handled them given my new insights. Self and Others brought all my previous learning together and has given me a new set of tools to help me better assess conflict situations, understand emotions and their impact, gain insights on my own conflict style and develop strategies to achieve positive outcomes. Self and Others is a great learning resource for those looking to improve their own relationships and address any type of conflict whether as a colleague, manager, facilitator or friend. Thank you for the opportunity to continue my personal learning journey!"
"This webinar course by CIIAN is one of the most informative, insightful, innovative and frankly, visually beautiful course I have ever taken. It weaves imagery, sound, and years of knowledge into an engaging, inspiring, and practical journey into the heart of conflict and the ways to deal with it. Always eager to watch the next video in the course, I have been applying its' tenets in numerous arenas both professionally and personally. This is state of the art learning for our ever evolving time."
"Even though I have had similar training before, mainly focusing on how the brain works, how thoughts influence and drive you, this course gave yet another angle and details on how to use these skills. All in all a good package, good structure, and suitable length chapters with understandable and practical examples"
