Have you ever asked yourself,

“Why Don’t They Get It?!”

Learn How to Lead Transforming Conversations
That Change the World

  • Frustrated by the polarized worldviews and values that dominate American political discourse?
  • Stumped when you try to reach beyond your allies to communicate with a  larger, more diverse audience?

Media in the Public Interest’s “Polarity Thinking” training will help you reach people who are not in the proverbial “choir.” Advocates who have completed “Polarity Thinking” training say it has helped them effectively express their vision so that the entire audience, regardless of worldview, “got it.”

  • Turn experiences that usually leave your frustrated and stumped into opportunities to bridge the divide and communicate effectively.
  • Learn to maintain authority and integrity while you smoothly navigate the divisive issues and dynamics that have thrown you in the past.
  • Become better equipped to mobilize public opinion and promote positive policy outcomes.
  • To move beyond the 2010 elections, we must shape a new civil, transpartisan speech. Those at the grassroots level can and should lead our communities into an era that transcends divisiveness so that we can work more effectively for change.

This training is available in two formats: 1) full day and in person and 2) a webinar series of four 1-1/2 hour sessions. Media in the Public Interest’s one-of-a-kind, full-day strategic communications training was developed by Lark Corbeil of Public News Service, Patty Beach of LeadershipSmarts.com and True North Programs and Eric Haas of Cognitive Strategies and the Rockridge Institute.
