From Conflict to Courage: How to Stop Avoiding and Start Leading

Speaker Marlene-Chism-

Unresolved conflict is workplace kryptonite. Get ready to develop the mindset and skills to defuse disagreements, overcome division, and turn conflict into an opportunity for growth.

Unresolved workplace conflict wastes time, increases stress, and negatively affects business outcomes. But conflict isn’t the problem, mismanagement is.

We unintentionally mismanage conflict when they fall into patterns of what speaker Marlene Chism calls “The Three As:” aggression, avoidance, and appeasing.

“These coping mechanisms are ways human beings avoid the emotions that come with conflict, but in the end it’s all avoidance,” says Chism.

In this webinar you will learn how to fearlessly deal with conflict head-on by expanding your conflict capacity.

You will learn (Learning Objectives):

  • The three elements of conflict capacity: Inner Game, Outer Game, Culture.
  • Inner Game – How to build self-awareness, values, discernment, and emotional integrity.
  • Outer Game – Skills, tools, and communication techniques.
  • Culture – The visible and invisible structures around you that can encourage or discourage conflict.

The Mountain is You: Transforming Self-Sabotage to Self-Mastery

This webinar is about self sabotage. Why we do it, when we do it, and how to stop doing it…for good.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile.

In this webinar you will learn how to:

  • Extract crucial insights from your most damaging habits.
  • Build emotional intelligence by understanding your brain and body.
  • Release past experiences.
  • Step out of your own way, and into your potential.

For centuries, the mountain has been used as a metaphor for the big challenges we face, especially ones that seem impossible to overcome.

To scale our mountains, we actually have to do the deep internal work of excavating trauma, building resilience, and adjusting how we show up for the climb.

In the end, it is not the mountain we master, but ourselves.

Learn how in this webinar!
