DCI Deliberation Facilitator Training Kicks Off Hurt Hub Innovation Week

August 18, 2022 by Carla Cole Leave a Comment

The DCI’s Deliberation Facilitator Training Program will kick off Innovation Week for the Jay Hurt Hub for Innovation and Entrepreneurship at Davidson College. This year’s theme is “Watt Makes You Come Alive?” and events will take place all week beginning September 11th.

Innovation Week will include events, curiosity pop-up booths, programming, and opportunities designed to promote and celebrate innovation and entrepreneurship. The week will end with a community block party. The Hurt Hub brings together innovators and entrepreneurs in the Davidson College community and Lake Norman area. Visit the Hurt Hub’s website to register for events!

The DCI’s Deliberation Facilitator Training Program will equip participants with the knowledge and skills to facilitate difficult conversations across difference. The training will help participants host more vibrant, meaningful, and constructive interactions in their organizations, with their friends and family, and in their communities. The two-part training takes place Sept. 11 and Sept. 17 from 1:30-5:30 pm (both sessions required). Please register here by Sept. 6.

This hands-on, interactive workshop will train participants in innovative techniques that will improve their ability to facilitate difficult discussions about political and social issues among people who may have very different backgrounds, values, and opinions. Although such facilitation can be challenging, it is increasingly needed in a world that is facing a host of immense challenges that require people to come together to solve issues collaboratively. Well-trained facilitators can help us honestly, respectively, and productively engage with these challenges and seek out innovative solutions.
