From Conflict to Courage with Marlene Chism
LIVE Virtual Event - Not PreRecorded.
Unresolved workplace conflict wastes time, increases stress, and negatively affects the workplace culture. But conflict isn’t the problem: Mismanagement is.
Leaders unintentionally mismanage conflict when they fall into dysfunctional patterns of aggression, avoidance, and appeasing.
The three reasons leaders mismanage conflict is due to the fear of emotions, the lack of skills development, or the culture itself.
Resolving conflict requires the ability to initiate, engage in and stay with difficult conversations.
Join Heather Joyner, Founder and CEO of the PSAP Consulting Group, and leadership expert and author, Marlene Chism as they discuss concepts in the book, learn a new definition of conflict, the ways in which leaders mismanage conflict, the three necessary components for building conflict capacity, and why identity shapes behavior.
