Holiday Wishes
by Erin Pote
The holiday season is upon us and as 2015 comes to a close, Dialogue Partners would like to wish you the happiest of holidays! We are grateful for all of the opportunities we've had this past year to connect with you and we continue to learn and grow from those experiences.
Our team will be taking a break to celebrate, and our office will be closed between December 22nd and January 3rd. We're looking forward to connecting with you upon our return. Stay tuned for our January newsletter, unveiling our 2016 training opportunities as well as some new ideas and initiatives!
Sincerely,
The Dialogue Partners Team

New Year, New Training Opportunities
We have had the privilege of training with some pretty awesome participants and organizations this year! There were many lightbulb moments for us (and them) and we continue to reflect on the conversations and insights we had the pleasure of being a part of. We have listed our confirmed 2016 training dates in this newsletter and also on our website. Watch for our updated registration form coming in early January. If you or your organization are interested in partnering or hosting a training session, we'd love to hear from you!

Listen
Generously
We often ask training participants to think about theory and concepts as they relate to their own reality within their organizations. In one recent training session, participants generated this statement to reflect the intention of public engagement at the "consult" level:
We will engage with you, listen generously, share information and show you how your participation contributed to a solution. #welovetoconsult
Listen generously. Those two words together really resonated with us and with the group. What "aha" moments did you experience in your work in 2015?
