What will we do?

Have you ever had a conversation where you were convinced you were being perfectly clear, yet the other person understood something completely different?

In a community as diverse as ours, we constantly interact with people who may have very different assumptions about communication, disagreement, trust, hierarchy, feedback, and decision-making. Even when we share similar values and a commitment to rational thinking, culture can quietly shape how we express ideas and how we interpret others. In this workshop, we’ll make some of these invisible differences visible and explore what happens when we stop assuming that our way of communicating is the default.

Organization

You are worried you have nothing to contribute? No worries! Everyone is welcome!

There always is a mix of German and English speakers and we configure the discussion rounds so that everyone feels comfortable participating. The primary language is English.

This meetup will be hosted by Joana.

There will be snacks and drinks.

We will go and get dinner after the meetup. Anyone who has time is welcome to join.

In the above map the location where you should leave your bikes is marked in blue and the entrance (at the end of the metal ramp) with a red cross.
