The Gunnison Library and the Community Foundation of the Gunnison Valley are joining together to bring an entertaining and thought provoking series of 4 workshops to build a better understanding of what communication is and what good communication looks like. The goal is to create a discourse of civility, compassion, listening and curiosity.  This non-partisan workshop series is designed to challenge people’s thinking that “my way or the highway” has to be the new form of civil discourse. Beginning with “Tuning in and tuning out- do we want to listen?”, on Wednesday October 4 Terry Schliesman, Ph.D, will present key listening concepts and generational factors that hinder communication.
