Question 2

What makes Fearless Dialogues different from leadership development, diversity training and programs designed to break through conflict, identify implicit bias and create change?

Accepted Answer

Fearless  Dialogues is about SEEING each other, not shaming and debating. Our  work has taught us that all human beings can connect and nod in  agreement when it comes to experiences of feeling invisible, ostracized  and “cut dead”—senior citizens whose relevance is questioned, CEOs  living with depression, the teenager with the perfect Facebook page,  parents caring for children with special needs or aging parents behind  closed doors, middle-aged employees overlooked for promotion, immigrant  custodial staff, etc. The unacknowledged are all around us. With this  recognition, fears lessen, and true engagement begins.

Question 3

What model do you use for your work?

Accepted Answer

The  signature Fearless Dialogues model utilizes a unique combination of  radical hospitality, interactive exercises, small-group discussion,  large group reflection, and high-impact theory-based mini lectures.   Recognizing the sensitivity of the subject matter and the diversity of  perspectives, this fusion of teaching approaches appeals to participants  across generational, cultural, educational, racial and class lines. The  model also attends to the learning styles of extroverts, introverts,  sensory learners, and contemplative thinkers.

The Training  Model is divided into three modules: see, hear and change.  The first of  the three modules, on seeing, seeks to aid leaders in identifying gifts  in people and places hidden in plain view.  The second module on  hearing creates an environment where students, teachers, staff and  parents develop the skill to listen deeply and to value the stories of  those from seemingly different backgrounds.  The final module on change  concludes with a call to action, known as the 3-Feet Challenge™, which  invites participants to apply practices of seeing and hearing that they  have learned during the session, in their respective contexts,  workplaces, homes, and the broader community.
