What People Say About
ARIA Conflict Engagement:
"The
ARIA process works at many levels. It is a wonderful
metaphor for the phases of constructive conflict
resolution that has applications in so many fields.
It captures how creative conflict resolution is
like a beautiful song when expertly executed. In
all its forms, I have incorporated ARIA into my
teaching and practice."
Deborah Kolb, Ph.D. Senior Fellow and Former Executive Director,
Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School

"I have
used the ARIA process all over the world, as both
a training and intervention tool, with groups locked
in identity-based conflict. It is the best approach
I know for helping people turn deep conflicts into
opportunities for learning and change."
Dr. Edy Kaufman, Executive Director, The Truman Institute for the
Advancement of International Peace, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem |
"Our
work with the ARIA group over the past year has been
a great investment in our well-being and future as
a health-care provider. Starting with a board retreat,
the ARIA Group has expertly guided our organization
to engage conflict as an opportunity for learning
and growth. It has been an invaluable management
training experience and we are now implementing a
comprehensive, sustainable ARIA Conflict Engagement
System throughout our organization." Read

"The
ARIA training that we employees,along with management,
have received over the past year has been outstanding.
It stood us in good stead even through a recent strike,
enabling us to maintain good communication with each
other despite the antagonistic environment around
us. With expert assistance from The ARIA Group, we
have now implemented an ARIA Conflict Engagement
System to ensure that our new skills and knowledge
are practically used and maintained. Moreover, outside
the work environment, I have also been able to use
ARIA skills in my involvement with community groups."

" During my 40 years of public service, conflict
has been a constant companion. My experience with
the ARIA Group and their approach has been thoroughly
positive. I highly recommend their services to
other public and private sector leaders and executives
whose daily bread is often buttered with conflict."
