Lunchtime Online Foundation Course: Empathy and Conflict Resolution
April to July 2025
Gina Seilern offers an introduction to the art of empathic listening and conflict resolution.
This is an introduction. No previous knowledge is necessary.
The course will be held in English.
Both on a small and large scale, we humans are traversing an uncertain and highly complex terrain. Differences of opinion and conflicts seem to be inevitable.
We have made it our mission to support individuals and groups in listening to each other, even when opinions are diametrically opposed or even in conflict.
To help deepen interpersonal cohesion both in intimate relationships and in society as a whole, we carry out educational work on the topics of empathy and conflict resolution. We believe that an empathic culture can bring back cohesion in situations in which it still seems unthinkable today for people to find each other again.
In this course, you will learn how to communicate in a way that increases the chance of others
- understanding your point of view
- feeling curious to listen to you
- wanting to cooperate with you
You will learn to navigate conflicts so that
- You are addressing the cause and not the symptoms
- All parties are heard
- Creative solutions are found that cover as many needs as possible
You will discover self-care practices which will help you
- Cultivate acceptance and self-connection
- find inner clarity
- deal with strong emotions such as anger, sadness or fear
Spreading these skills is our contribution to the challenging yet wondrous journey of humanity.
Our work is not profit-oriented. We don’t want to make big money (more information in German) but we want to make a contribution to the challenging yet wondrous journey that we are taking together as human beings.
That is why we are dependent on financial support. We would be delighted if you would become a supporting member (more information in German) today. ❤️
