DPS board, superintendent get coaching on making up - The Denver Post:
"COLORADO SPRINGS — Denver's seven-member school board and superintendent spent nine hours Thursday with a psychologist, learning how to better communicate and work together.
The word 'Kumbaya' was, indeed, uttered, and board members participated in various relationship-building exercises as they were coached on how to build trust and cohesion using constructive language, listening skills and empathy.
'This is skill-building,' said Susan Heitler, the Denver psychologist and marital therapist hired for $2,400 to lead the session. 'It's basically the same (as marriage counseling). The main difference is it's eight people rather than two.'"
