    Does this sound familiar? You supervise a team that usually works together very well. You are a respectful, friendly and accessible boss.

Projects

  • Americorps LISC National Leadership Conference, Conflict Resolution Training

    -

    Americorps LISC's National Leadership Conference was held in San Diego, CA from March 4-8, 2017.

    During the conference, Fisher Law Practice provided conflict resolution training for nearly 120 leaders from around the country. Each 3.5 hour workshop used discussions, games, and role plays to deconstruct our understanding of conflict and teach on the ground de-escalation tools. The participants were engaged and enthusiastic. And the feedback was incredible!
