Professional Certificate in Advanced Public Engagement for Local Government

Professor Stephanie Blondell taught "Facilitating Fearlessly: Difficult Conversations in Public Meetings and Beyond" in the Pepperdine School of Public Policy's "Professional Certificate in Advanced Public Engagement for Local Government" held January 19-21. The three day intensive workshops is designed to equip public servants with the skills and abilities to engage residents in the decision that affect their lives and communities. In an age where trust in government (and indeed all institutions) is at an all-time low and indifference toward local government is at an all time high conflict resolution skills are integral to good government.
