Narrative Conflict CoachingPangborn, Ashley J 01 June 2014 (has links)
ABSTRACT
Narrative conflict coaching is a counseling technique which focuses on separating clients from their problems and encouraging them to see their lives and futures from new perspectives. It has been used in a variety of arenas and is consistent with other practices within the field of narrative conflict resolution, such as narrative mediation. In this project I utilized qualitative research methods to analyze the immediate effectiveness of conflict coaching questioning techniques within the setting of a counseling conversation. The analysis focuses on the detail of the process of narrative conflict coaching more than on the final outcomes. The data was collected through two different conflict coaching conversations, one of which was about a conflict in a work context and one in a family context. The conversational data collected was compared with a set of detailed guidelines for narrative conflict coaching specified by Dr. John Winslade and the question that was asked was whether the conflict coaching process corresponded with these guidelines. The data confirmed that this was the case and also showed some indicators of the effectiveness of narrative conflict coaching techniques through documenting the participants’ responses to each of the steps in the process. Analysis of discursive positioning from statements early in each of the conversations and also from late in each conversation indicated positioning shifts in the direction of creating an alternative narrative into which the participants might live. Both participants were shown to reach a place of difference in perspective in relation to the conflict story. It is therefore argued that the guidelines for a conflict coaching process are adaptable in at least two different areas of life. It cannot yet be generalized to all areas of conflict but looks promising for multiple personal conflict situations.

Dekonstruksie van die invloed van die sosiale diskoers "Godsdiens": 'n individuele narratief / Deconstruction of the influence of the social discourse "religion": an individual narrativeNaudé, Susanna Sophia 02 1900 (has links)
In hierdie verhandeling reflekteer ek oor my godsdiensdiskoers en die invloed
daarvan op my lewe, beide as persoon en as terapeut. My werk vind 'n nis in
die wyse waarop dit die 'stil, onsigbare mensa' benader wie se stories gevorm
is deur diskoerse van die modemistiese samelewing. In my navorsing kry ek te
doen met problema wat in die algemeen met die praktyke van marginalisering
geassosieer word. Die narratiewe gesprekvoering met 'medeskrywers' aan my
storie en interaksie met hulle verskillende horisonne kristalliseer in 'n
bevrydende en veelvlakkige insig. Hierdie kennis stel my in staat om nuwe
keuses te maak en 'n alternatiewe storie vir myself te formuleer. Die studie illustreer
dus nie net hoe narratiewe terapie die 'stil, onsigbare' produkte van 'n
paternalistiese samelewing kan bemagtig nie. Dit wys ook op die waarde van
die oopstelling van die terapeut se eie verhaal vir sy/haar vorming as terapeut. / In this dissertation I reflect on my religious discourse, its influence on my life
and how it affects me, both as a person and a therapist. It addresses a niche in
its approach to the 'silent, invisible people' whose stories are authored by the
discourses of a modernistic society. My research stumbles on all kinds of
problems that are generally associated with the practices of marginalisation.
Acting as both client and therapist, I enter into numerous interactive conversational
sessions with 'co-authors' of my story, afJ with different contexts and
horizons. This process crystallises in a liberating and multi-faceted truth. The
newly gained knowledge enables me to make new choices and formulate tor
myself an alternative story. This study illustrates not only how narrative practices
may empower the 'silent, invisible' products of a patemalistic society. It
also shows how therapists may benefit from the deconstruction of their own
story in both a personal and professional way. / Practical Theology / M. Th. (Pastoral Theology)
