Have you wanted to explore more ADR-related books? Would you like a group to discuss ADR ideas, thoughts and skills with?
UCCR invites you to join us in exploring informative books in our common genre.
The next meeting of the UCCR Book Club will be April 24, 2026 from 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm, via Zoom.
The book will be “Difficult Conversations” by Douglas Stone, Bruce Patton, and Sheila Heen from the Harvard Negotiation Project
We attempt or avoid difficult conversations every day-whether dealing with an underperforming employee, disagreeing with a spouse, or negotiating with a client. From the Harvard Negotiation Project, the organization that brought you Getting to Yes, Difficult Conversations provides a step-by-step approach to having those tough conversations with less stress and more success. you’ll learn how to:
· Decipher the underlying structure of every difficult conversation
· Start a conversation without defensiveness
· Listen for the meaning of what is not said
· Stay balanced in the face of attacks and accusations
· Move from emotion to productive problem solving
Following the meeting, those in attendance will choose the next UCCR Book Club book. Our plan is to hold four book club meetings per year.
The UCCR Book Club is not intended for CLE or Court Roster credit, but will provide members the opportunity to virtually meet and share in great discussions!
