SUMMARY:Hope in Action: Better Conversations to Thrive in Difficult Times
DESCRIPTION:Examining Language and Communication Techniques for a More Hopeful Future \n\n\n\nIn the middle of an omnicrisis\, how does one stay hopeful enough to take effective action? Having any hope can seem naive in times like these\, amid wars\, worsening climate disaster\, populist autocracies on the rise\, technology that destabilizes jobs and lives\, and on and on. \n\n\n\nBut hope is always available\, if you know how to find it. In conversation with strategist and writer Malcolm Gilderdale\, communication scientist\, educator\, and author Dr. Haesun Moon will explain how better conversations can make us more hopeful and more effective\, and practical methods for our own lives. Dr. Moon believes a deeper understanding of language and cognition can help us reshape our understanding of what’s possible in our own lives\, in our personal relationships\, and in our communities more broadly. \n\n\n\nThrough pragmatic\, practical explanations (and her trademark sense of humour)\, Dr. Moon will help us shift our orientation toward hopefulness and find a way forward to what she calls “the preferred future.”
