How Relationship Issues Parallel Workplace Challenges with Rabbi Shlomo and Rivka Slatkin Join EIM+'s guest hosts Rabbi Shlomo Slatkin and his wife, Rivka Slatkin as they share three issues that plague both marriages and relationships at work. About your guest hosts: Bio: Shlomo and Rivka Slatkin founded The Marriage Restoration Project as a global initiative to keep couples together and happy. After working with high-conflict couples for over a decade in his marriage counseling practice, The Marriage Restoration Project, Rabbi Shlomo Slatkin, M.S., LCPC discovered that the same process he uses with couples is exactly what companies need to do to sort out their workplace and communication differences.   When Shlomo and Rivka experienced their own relationship problems, they were pointed in the direction of Imago therapy. After their first session of Imago therapy, they immediately felt like they were in love again. That was due to Imago therapy's focus on restoring marriages through building and enhancing the connection that exists between the couple (no matter how hidden it is!), not by getting involved in mediation or negotiating. Shlomo then became a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist. He is the author of several books, including The Five-Step Action Plan to a Happy & Healthy Marriage. Together with Rivka, they founded http://www.TheMarriageRestorationProject.com, a global initiative to help keep couples together and happy.
