We know about
challenging relationships —
A close relative of the ICM2, the Violence Integrative Prevention and Restoration (PAR) Model has been successfully demonstrated in schools, an international setting and a Level 5 (maximum security) prison. The most severe form of conflict is violence. The PAR Model has been shown to be very effective in reducing and eliminating violence. That "social technology" is central to the ICM2 and the "Power Managing Challenging Relationships" course.

Power Managing Challenging Relationships is a multidisciplinary, multimedia and interactive course providing concrete tools to effectively anticipate, understand, respond to and manage challenging human relationships. These can include conflicts between individuals, teams, provider and customer or any other type of difficult relational episodes.
Neuroscience is a central
component of the ICM2 and is
refrenced throughout the Power
Managing Challenging
Relationships course.
The course applies the new Integrative Conflict Management Model (ICM2) — a new "social technology" built around an in-depth understanding of human relationships, the need for personal, family, community, institutional and organizational power, and strategies for management and resolution of conflict through the application of appropriate and healthy forms of power.
Key Outcomes
The Power Managing Challenging Relationships course provides effective tools to integrate an understanding of power issues, brain dynamics and a person's ability to restructure their experience of reality so that conflict is minimized or eliminated. This approach and its core elements allow a broad range of attributes — such as effective listening techniques, compassion, understanding and respectful debate — to operate free of the inhibiting weight of traditional approaches.
Key outcomes for this course include:
More effective teams.
Reduced conflict.
Improved cooperation.
Greater staff retention.
Better customer relations.
Increased sales.
Improved customer retention.
Increased job satisfaction.
More effective problem solving.
Enhanced creativity and innovation.
Improved communication.
Enhanced creativity and innovation.
Core Concepts
The ICM2 integrates a broad range of diverse disciplines including social theory, neuroscience, the public health approach, developmental theory, attachment theory, learning theory, psychology and physiology. Core concepts include:
The "five bodes" — the physical, emotional, mental, environmental and the spiritual aspects of human existence.
The "construct" for creating a personal reality fostering excellence, cooperation and effectiveness.
Power swapping and infusion — replacing unhealthy and nonproductive power with healthy, results-producing forms of personal and organizational power.
The objectification/actions process — shifting from seeing coworkers, team members, customers and others as "objects" to working together to produce maximum results.
