This session will feature David Hatfield.

He holds an MA in Process Oriented Facilitation and Conflict Studies, and is a Processwork Diplomate, which is the highest attainment of training offered by the International Association of Process-Oriented Psychology. He also holds Level 1 Trauma Counseling with the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute.

David is offering a Master Class in Conflict Facilitation - 10% off for BCODN members.

Working with conflict has always been a challenge.

Turn conflict into a doorway of possibilities that you know how to open.

The master class is designed for organizational leaders, coaches, group facilitators, and others whose roles require them to navigate complex human and organizational dynamics with responsibility and influence. The course delivery is 70% in person and 30% online, in full group modules, small group learning labs, and 1:1 coaching sessions.

The course content is primarily drawn from Process Work, and is designed for practical application to common patterns and dynamics in conflicts. The course is constructed and delivered with trauma awareness, somatic resources and respect for diversity of lived experience, communication and relationship styles.

Participants will learn how to apply Processwork attitudes and methods to common patterns found in conflict, and develop their own individual facilitator style in doing so.

DATES: January 9 - February 13

Senior OD Coffee Chat: Before the Workday Takes Over (27 Oct 2026)

Senior OD Coffee Chat:
Before the Workday Takes Over

A monthly virtual gathering where senior OD professionals tackle the questions that don't get enough airtime anywhere else.

About this series

Some of the best thinking happens over coffee, before the workday takes over.

Each month, a small group of senior OD professionals gathers to dig into one pressing question facing the field. Topics are drawn from current research, real organizational challenges, and the things practitioners are quietly wrestling with — not the polished conference version, but what's actually happening on the ground.

Whether you're an independent consultant or an internal leader navigating complex change, the goal is the same: leave with at least one new perspective worth taking back to work.

How it works

Topic framing (5–7 min)

Small-group breakouts

Full-room synthesis

Who this is for

Senior OD practitioners

Consultants, coaches, and facilitators with enough experience to have real questions about where the field is heading

Internal OD leaders

People & Culture executives and organizational leaders navigating the strategic and systemic end of change

Critical thinkers

Those who want more than trend summaries — people ready to pressure-test ideas with peers who will push back
