As we enter this election year, it is important to focus on the most productive ways to communicate with those who hold opposing political views. We face serious problems which demand serious discussions for the benefit of our community. Whether discussions are among family and friends or at public meetings, it is important to recognize that there is a way to discuss even the most hot button topics in a productive, civil way. Marc will engage the audience in some exercises to demonstrate the ART of Communication on issues that may tend to divide us.
